Looks like I missed 2 things :

  set selinux to permissive.

  systemctl enable cups-lpd.socket
  systemctl start cups-lpd.socket
  
  

I now set SElinux to permissive. When I want to go back to enforcing, which
"flags" do I have to set. I already tried with
"sysem-config-selinux-->boolean to tick the boxes with cups and lpd.
But that did not solve the problem.

Have you bothered looking at the audit logs to see what selinux is
complaining about regarding CUPS or lpd? You should see warnings even
in permissive mode.

Also, if you have setroubleshoot-server installed, it will detect those 
audit messages and put helpful messages into the journal about what you 
can do, including booleans to change.
