What do you mean by adding a printer?  One that's available over the
network?  (That should happen automatically.)  One that's connected
locally so they can use it on the same computer?  (That should happen
automatically.)  One that's connected locally, so that others on the
same network can use it as well?  (To some degree, that happens
automatically, if the default CUPS setup is to share out printers.)  You
really need to define what you mean (your comments further in your email
are off on a yet another different tangent).

That's an option, being able to stop any task or just their own.  Are
you asking a question here?

Which it is.  They only configure the local CUPS server.

I don't know why you think configuring a server on one computer
configures other servers on other computers.
