Could be a network error.
Check it - ping server from workstation, try to login with telnet or ssh (if they're installed and active)

Has printing worked before, can you print from the server?

check your client.conf from /etc/cups/client.conf, then check this point :

################################################## ######################

#
# ServerName: the hostname of your server. By default CUPS will use the
# hostname of the system or the value of the CUPS_SERVER environment
# variable.
#

#ServerName cowfarm.dev.brawijaya.ac.id


make sure that your client doesnt have it's name as server name (add # mark in the beginning)

I have found that if you set the hostname of the server to an actual domain name instead of the ip address then you wont be able to print to the server from the network. In my experience unless you have a dns server you should really set all host names to the static ips you configured them with. Just don't allow it to be an name that needs to be resolved.
