Pinter not being deleted by cups



I have two printers installed with cups. Say P1 and P2. When ever I delete printer P2 with web interface in cups or by the command "lpadmin -x P2", it mysteriously turns up again and shows up with "lpstat -p". It is also visible in the web interface (http://localhost:631/admin)

This is the output of dpkg -l|grep cups:

# dpkg -l|grep cups

I want to konw how to remove the printer P2 completely? and why it shows up again after removing it?
