I struggled with the same thing. My notes say this:
1) Check .trinity/share/config/tdeprintrc and ensure that it represents your CUPS server + user account on that server. This affects any printing done from TDE
2) when printing to a remote CUPS server: delete /etc/cups/client.conf - it does bad stuff
3) delete anything *avahi*, especially avahi-demon. If you do not, you get "ghost" printers that do not really exist. This applies to remote pronters. Add those with the CUPS webinterface, URI: ipp://PRINTER/printers/PRINTERNAME, Geneic, protocol: IPP-Everywhere
