This means, that the CUPS daemon is not running.

2 possible reasons:

 1) another program has bound to port 631 (unlikely).
    (try to find out which by using the netstat command).

 2) misconfiguration of your cupsd.conf file (most frequent reason).

The misconfiguration could be that you use both, the "Listen *:631"
and the "Port 631" directive. Please only use one of the two.

If in doubt, send your cupsd.conf (but please strip off all comments
from that file). You can use the command

  grep -v ^# /etc/cups/cupsd.conf | grep -v ^$

to see the bare settings for your cupsd.
