For printing, I would review CUPS documentation on policies:
http://www.cups.org/documentation.php/doc-1.4/policies.html
Concrete steps on how to setting up will vary based on how are you
sharing the printer (ipp, samba...).
For network browsing, there are "proxies" like Squid that can be used for
this same purpose (restrict access to web sites by using ACL and
controlling/auditing your users bandwith).
