Open a terminal window, su to become root, then type 'lppasswd -a root'
You will be asked to enter a password twice; this can be any password, but for simplicity you can make it the same as the normal root password. Now you can log into CUPS administration by using 'root' and the password you just specified.
lppasswd -a root
