Looks like this doesn't really apply to the current page, but I'd presume that a "webserver" for cups would refer to the admin page (http://localhost:631/admin).
As far as updating this to work, I can say the following:
- I used
Listen 192.168.2.* ... Allow 192.168.2.*
instead of
Listen *:631 ... Allow from 192.168.2.0/24
- I had to run these commands manually after updating cupsd.conf and restarting cups:
cupsctl --share-printers lpadmin -p Printer_Name -o printer-is-shared=true
- It is then necessary to point the clients at your new print server, via lpadmin or /etc/cups/client.conf
