OK, you need to register and then start cups...
/sbin/chkconfig cups on
/sbin/service cups start
Then you will have to see if printer is still set up...probably
easiest
to just use 'Administration' => 'Printing'
set up printer, apply changes, click 'Print Test Page'
until you get a test page to print, don't bother with any other
program.
Fix the settings

I'm sort of done with trying to help when you won't do what I
suggest,
there's little point of continuing on

I only have a "Administration' => 'Printing' in "KDE --> settings -->
printers "
and it only sets up a fax system,if I go to "kDE control--> center
-->
peripherals--> printers"
wont work because it cannot access "localhost:631.
I hope this answer helps you as I find it difficult to follow all the
postings.

I have clipped out all non-relevant portions...
did you install cups using --nodeps?
did you
/sbin/chkconfig cups on
/sbin/service cups start
? ? ?
Until you verify those three things (one of them is going to come up
with the solution), your ability to administer printers isn't there.

[david@reddwarf ~]$ sudo chkconfig cups on
[david@reddwarf ~]$ sudo service cups start
Starting cups: [ OK ]
