I haven't followed the whole thread,
but IIRC you did not have a file /etc/cups/printers.conf .
For what it is worth, here is mine with a parallel printer:
-------------------------------
[root@alfred cups]# cat printers.conf
# Printer configuration file for CUPS v1.2.3
# Written by cupsd on 2006-09-09 15:16
<DefaultPrinter lj>
DeviceURI parallel:/dev/lp0
Location LaserJet 5L
Info LaserJet 5L
State Idle
Accepting Yes
JobSheets none none
QuotaPeriod 0
PageLimit 0
KLimit 0
</Printer>
------------------------------- 

I don't think you had a good cupsd.conf either.
These are normally set by going to http://localhost:631/
