Based on everyone's advice and some online sites I added:
ServerName 192.168.1.105
BrowseAddress 192.168.1.255

and in the <Location> section
Allow From 192.168.1.*

Then saved and restarted the cups server.
Then set up the printer as
ipp://192.168.1.105/printer/HL-5150D

Also tried:
ipp://192.168.1.105/ipp/port1
http://192.168.1.105:631/...

All I ever get in the properties of the printer is
Ready: Network host '192.168.1.105' is busy; will retry in 30 seconds...
So Obviously something isn't working right.

I noticed that once I got the cups server setup, the server should be 
broadcasting and show up as a choice in the printer config GUI. But this 
isn't the case, maybe if I solve this everything else will fall into place.
Even though cupsd-browsing.conf says the Browsing is off by default, 
both machines have
Browsing On

I don't think it matters, but the machines are separated by a switch,
Most of my machines are on one device but the server is nested off that 
  beneath a switch, but since that doesn't effect any of my other 
network functions I don't see why this would be any different.

What's a good way to confirm that I'm hitting port 631 on the machine 
over the network, or that the Cups server is broadcasting, so I know if 
the problem is still server config or my desktop machine?
