That also works with network installed printer. You select the 8th option instead of the 9th and you provide the ip address. Usually it is in a form of (192.168.1.xxx)
The IP address can be found from the router page (usually 192.168.1.1)
Or with the nmap utility: nmap -sP 192.168.1.1-255 to scan all the addresses in the 192.168.1.xxx subnet (it takes about a minute)
or by visiting the cups server at http://localhost:631/printers/? the printer's ip is at the printer's details in a form like socket://192.168.1.xxx
