To check to see if it's running:

$ ps aux | grep cups

Then check your /etc/cups/cupsd.conf - near the end is <Location /admin>
section.  Make sure that you have something like:

## Restrict access to local domain
Order Deny,Allow
Deny From All
Allow From 127.0.0.1 192.168.1.*

If that doesn't reveal anything, you could try posting the conf file.
