You need to edit /etc/cups/cupsd.conf and change the security settings
near the end of the file. You may also have to change the network
browsing options in the section above security. See the on-line docs for
details.

Strange, but probably something to do with the browse/security settings
and which clients can access cups, or perhaps to do with your domain
name resolution... try using the 127.0.0.1 ip address instead of
"localhost" in the url.

Also likely to be a config issue. Read the CUPS on-line documentation
and local man pages to find out where you are going wrong.
