I tried now the following:

till@till-x1carbon:~/printing/cups/bzr/y$ sudo systemctl stop cups
Warning: Stopping cups.service, but it can still be activated by:
  cups.socket
  cups.path
till@till-x1carbon:~/printing/cups/bzr/y$ ps auxwww | grep cupsd

So for the web interface we need some systemd unit file which triggers CUPS via port 631. Any example files welcome.
