You can use enable/disable of CUPS by using cupsenable/cupsdisable.
(Well, I agree it's better to change manpage's description. So I treat
this bug as documentation problem.)
1. Yes, "enable" is built-in command of some shells, such as bash.
You can launch enable of CUPS by using cupsenable or
"/usr/bin/enable".
2. It looks strange, enable of cups doesn't show such a message.
Maybe this is launched from another place in your path.
Check by "which enable". Although you can lanuch cups by cupsenable
or "/usr/bin/enable".
Thanks,
