Just checking some old mails.  If you haven't already corrected this,
here is the /etc/cupsd script that I created.

----------start /etc/init.d/cupsd
#!/sbin/runscript

depend() {
        need xinetd
}

autoconfig() {
if [ ! -e /etc/cups/cupsd.conf ] ; then
        eerror "You need an /etc/cups/cupsd.conf file to run cupsd"
        return 1
fi
}

start() {
        autoconfig || return 1
        ebegin "Starting cupsd"
        start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --exec /usr/sbin/cupsd 1>&2
        eend $?
}

stop() {
        ebegin "Stopping cupsd"
        start-stop-daemon --stop --quiet -u root -n cupsd 1>&2
        # long explanation removed; basically: keep things sane
        if [ $? -ne 0 ] ; then
                if [ -e /dev/shm/.init.d/started/cupsd ] ; then
                        eend 0
                fi
        fi
        eend $?
}
----------end /etc/init.d/cupsd
