You could try:

pkg_delete -dfv cups*

Then install using the cups meta port:

Port:	cups-1.3.10
Path:	/usr/ports/print/cups
Info:	Common UNIX Printing System: Metaport to install complete system

Personally, I would use: "portmanager print/cups -l"

Be sure to update your ports tree prior to reinstalling anything.
