Look for /etc/cups/client.conf, ~/.cupsrc, and ~/.cups/client.conf
files - they may be pointing to the wrong hostname/IP.  Normally
you don't need those files to be present.

Also check for the CUPS_SERVER and IPP_PORT environment variables.
Those will override the default server as well.

Finally, make sure that your /etc/hosts file contains an entry for
localhost that points to 127.0.0.1 (and only that address).
