[Solved} Can't add printer using CUPS

Hi,
I'm on a fresh Arch 32 install with a printer connected to the parallel port.
I've edited /etc/rc.conf and added CUPS daemon.
I access CUPS from a browser, add the default CUPS password, and, when clicking on the Add Printer button nothing happens.
Same both in Firefox and Konqueror.
Please advise?

Solved, permission problem.
Silly me, used the PW offered by CUPS (PW=CUPS) instaed of root's one.
