Replace 192.168.1.2 with the local IP address of the computer running calibre. If you have changed the port the calibre content server is running on, you will have to change 8080 as well to the new port. The local IP address is the IP address you computer is assigned on your home network. A quick Google search will tell you how to find out your local IP address.
You wills ee a list of books in Safari, just click on the epub link for whichever book you want to read, Safari will then prompt you to open it with iBooks."
Which can be found here if you scroll down.

Hmm, weird...
I can see the Calibre webserver and books from Safari, but when I click on epub, it shows the option to open with iBook, it actually opens iBook but the book is not being displayed or downloaded, nothing happens. I tested with DROPBOX and have no problem. I tested on the local host (where Calibre is running) and no problems either.
Calibre book's content is in an Ubuntu headless server, Calibre itself (program) running on my Ubuntu laptop using the server's folder as mount point and of course, iPad wifi on same network.
