Yeah 90% of my job is SNMP on Nix... it is a very dull and full on thing to explain to people when you get right into it.
Cacti forums are a great place to find out information, but, if you just wish to get something going then install the package for your system of NetSNMP and the basic config parameters are fairly straight forward setup you allowed zones and community string (recommend v2c BTW).
After this start /etc/init.d/snmpd start and you should be able to connect.
Then you may need to start looking into MIB's.

NAME
snmp - cups snmp backend
SYNOPSIS
/usr/lib/cups/backend/snmp ip-address-or-hostname
/usr/libexec/cups/backend/snmp ip-address-or-hostname
lpinfo -v --include-schemes snmp
DESCRIPTION
The CUPS SNMP backend provides legacy discovery and identification of network printers using SNMPv1. When used for discovery through the
scheduler, the backend will list all printers that respond to a broadcast SNMPv1 query with the "public" community name. Additional
queries are then sent to printers that respond in order to determine the correct device URI, make and model, and other information needed
for printing.
In the first form, the SNMP backend is run directly by the user to look up the device URI and other information when you have an IP address
or hostname. This can be used for programs that need to configure print queues where the user has supplied an address but nothing else.
In the second form, the SNMP backend is run indirectly using the lpinfo(8) command. The output provides all printers detected via SNMP on
the configured broadcast addresses. Note: no broadcast addresses are configured by default.
ENVIRONMENT
The DebugLevel value can be overridden using the CUPS_DEBUG_LEVEL environment variable. The MaxRunTime value can be overridden using the
CUPS_MAX_RUN_TIME environment variable.
FILES
The SNMP backend reads the /etc/cups/snmp.conf configuration file, if present, to set the default broadcast address, community name, and
logging level.
CONFORMING TO
The CUPS SNMP backend uses the information from the Host, Printer, and Port Monitor MIBs along with some vendor private MIBs and intelli-
gent port probes to determine the correct device URI and make and model for each printer.
