Please try to be descriptive in what you're asking for, it makes it easier for folks to help you.

Check here http://www.howtoforge.com/installati...ra8-desktop-p7
which should give you some pointers on how to set up a printer.

I dare say, if you try to search for a network printer on your local LAN, it should show up in the standard print utility included in fedora! At least, I know that in ubuntu, the print settings in GNOME are relatively automatic! It will find the IP of the printer, and all you need to do is select make and model.
