Is it possible that the interface actually wants your local system's 
root password so that it can change the CUPS server settings?

You didn't post the exact words of the error message, so I'm just 
guessing here.

Consider configuring CUPS using "lpadmin" or the web-based admin tool on 
http://localhost:631/ instead, see if you have any more luck with that.
