First allow printer-sharing on linux-box. This must be done in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf by adding something like the following:
<location /printers/hp>
AuthType None
Order Deny,Allow
Deny From All
Allow From 127.0.0.1
Allow From 192.168.0.*
</location>
/printers/hp is the before locally installed printer.Now the printer should be accessable from local 192.168.0.*-network.
Now setting up OS X Panther.

Update: … the article below belogs only to PostScript printers – using HPDeskjets this does not belong to you, just read „step by step“!

In Panther, it can be difficult to print to a remote CUPS server. This is because Panther runs CUPS as its own print engine, and will attempt to render the PostScript for you once you select your correct printer driver. It will then send the rendered file to the remote CUPS server. The remote CUPS server will then try to render the already rendered file and will give a no_file error. The work-around is to make one end of the chain a ‚raw‘ printer. [read more]
Step by step:
1. open webbrowser and go to http://127.0.0.1:631/
2. click „Printers“
3. „Add Printer“ and enter name, … for the remote printer
4. choose Device ipp
5. insert Device URI ipp://192.168.0.1:631/printers/hp
6. choose Model/Driver: Raw
7. choose Model Raw Queue

Update: for non PostScript printers:
6. choose Model/Driver: HP (or your own model)

Now the remote printer can be normaly accessed via Print-Dialog:Shared Printers
