[Solved]Printer not working

When i try to add new printer in gnome it shows me "Failed to add new printer" message. I have installed cups server and client, but for some odd reason it just fails to add.

Looks like printer is recognized:

After trying to add i get this message:

Any ideas?

Edit:
Tried adding printer via cups web interface and it worked, but i still want to be able to add it via gui.

Edit2:
Finally fixed by installing system-config-printer package.
