Really strange, it seem a cupsd process is responding some way
Is it there something listenting on port 631?
cribrum ~ # /etc/init.d/cupsd stop
* Stopping cupsd ...
[ ok ]
cribrum ~ # lpstat -t
lpstat: Unable to connect to server

Side notes:
1) I had to generate /etc/cups/ssl/server.crt
and /etc/cups/ssl/server.key by hand to connect via https web

* # mv /etc/cups /etc/cups.orig; emerge -va1 cups

* You need to rebuild kdelibs for kdeprinter to work with cups-1.2

* /usr/lib/cups exists - You need to remerge every ebuild that
* installed into /usr/lib/cups and /etc/cups, qfile is in
portage-utils:
* # FEATURES=-collision-protect emerge -va1
$(qfile -qC /usr/lib/cups /etc/cups | sed "s:net-print/cups$::")
