You could try "dpkg -r cups" -- if nothing else, it may be able to give 
you a slightly more helpful error message (or, if you got one, what was 
it?)

That probably means you have it listening in the wrong place. Exactly what 
did you change in the configuration file? What error message(s) are you 
getting? Is that is specific as they get?
