I haven't read the whole thread,
but I haven't seen any evidence that cupsd is running on your machine.

What is the output of "ps aux | grep cups" ?

Also what is the result of "telnet localhost 631"?
And "telnet 127.0.0.1 631"?

I'm not sure what you mean.
If cupsd is running then you should be able to browse to localhost:631
without giving the superuser password.

I strongly suspect your problem is much simpler than you think.

I suppose you could possibly be running a firewall (eg shorewall)
that prevents you accessing port 631?
