In either system preferences > Print and Fax or via the drop down when choosing a printer in the printer dialog add a new printer. At the top there are 5 options, choose Advanced. Wait for it to do its thing. Then change type to Internet Printing Protocol. Device should stay as "Another Device". In URL enter ipp://your.printers.ipp.address. Under Name, add the name you'd like the print to show up as in print dialogs. Finally change Print Using to "Auto Select", it may change it back automatically to "Generic PostScript Printer" or something else.
