I also got the problem, caused from invalid netmask value in cupsd.conf.

# Lines below are automatically generated - DO NOT EDIT <Location /printers/psc750> Order Deny,Allow Deny From All Allow From 127.0.0.1 Allow from 192.168.1.1/255.255.255.0 AuthType None

I had to remove the 255.255.255.0.
The reason CUPS is rejecting this is that the correct network address is:
192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0 and not 192.168.1.1/255.255.255.0
CUPS-1.1.x would correct this for you, but CUPS-1.2 no longer does. But this line in cupsd.conf gets written by system-config-printer (it copies what you enter in the 'Sharing' dialog).
If you run, as root:
/usr/sbin/printconf-backend --force-rebuild /sbin/service cups restart
you will probably find that the incorrect network address is back again.
To test out the correct fix, please fetch these packages:
http://people.redhat.com/twaugh/tmp/cups-fc5/i386/system-config-printer-0.6.... http://people.redhat.com/twaugh/tmp/cups-fc5/i386/system-config-printer-gui-...
and install them with 'rpm -Fvh system-config-printer*-0.6.151.7-1*'. Then restart cups: '/sbin/service cups restart'
and things should work fine. Let me know whether this works for you!
Thanks, Tim. */
