One remark, to test setup of an arbitrary printer which you do not actually have, set "FileDevice yes" in /etc/cups/cups-files.conf, restart CUPS and then run the commands:

cd /usr/share/system-config-printer/
python newprinter.py --setup-printer=file:/tmp/printout --devid='MFG:Canon;MDL:MP160;'

Replace the terms after MFG: and MDL: by manufacturer and model of the desired printer.
