This is a HTTP/IPP error code:
  403: Forbidden

Check your access_log for details and have a look at your

  <Location ...>
    Allow ...
    Deny ...

directives in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf.

Btw. other, perhaps interesting HTTP/IPP codes:

  200: OK
  400: Bad Request
  401: Unauthorized
  403: Forbidden
  404: Not Found
  405: Method Not Allowed
  408: Request Timeout
