I am facing this exact problem..Found these thing which might help someone..
1)"The "client-error-not-possible" problem is covered in the Gimp-print FAQ. Basically, you have to have the (USB) printer connected and turned on at the time you start up CUPS when you first configure the printer."
2)"Starting with CUPS 1.1.11, you cannot choose an AppSocket
connection and enter "usb:/dev/usb/lp0" or the like as the URI; you
will get a "client-error-not-possible" error at the end of the
installation process, and you will have a message like the
following in your CUPS error log (typically
/var/log/cups/error_log):...
This package normally builds translated versions of the PPD
files. This provides PPD files translated into the languages that
this package supports. However, the translation process does not
work correctly on all systems; in particular, many BSD systems are
known to simply build multiple copies of the English PPD files.
If your system does not build these files correctly, which will be
apparent when you use a CUPS front end to select a PPD file and
you see something like this:
EPSON Stylus Photo EX, CUPS+GIMP-print v4.2.5(en)
EPSON Stylus Photo EX, CUPS+GIMP-print v4.2.5(en)
EPSON Stylus Photo EX, CUPS+GIMP-print v4.2.5(en)
rather than this:
EPSON Stylus Photo EX, CUPS+GIMP-print v4.2.5(en)
EPSON Stylus Photo EX, CUPS+GIMP-print v4.2.5(sv)
EPSON Stylus Photo EX, CUPS+GIMP-print v4.2.5(fr)
You may wish to turn off the translation of PPD files:
./configure --with-cups --without-translated-ppds"
