I have not seen the GNOME version of CUPS setup utility (since I run 
Kubuntu), so I'm not sure how it works. Did the configuration utility 
require you to provide your sudo password? If not, was there something 
in the interface which offered you the chance to take up "Adminstrator" 
rights? This looks to me like an error from a regular user trying to 
setup CUPS, and it's simply not allowed. If you run the configuration 
from sudo (or if you enable the root user password and login as root), 
then it should not have this error.
