Downloading it is fine, but I would still suggest you look into why this
not work. What does your /etc/apt/sources.list contain?

These days it is not too hard to get going from scratch, so I would not
be too worried about purging the configuration and reinstall. Are you
accessing the cups web interface remotely? If so then you may need to
tweak /etc/cups/cupsd.conf (see man cupsd.conf).
