CUPS was just updated & needs to be re-enabled… See this post: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=260970
Everyone have a GREAT Weekend!!!
Thank you! 
For anyone who doesn’t care and just wants a TL;DR of what to do: first update, then run:
sudo systemctl enable cups.service
sudo systemctl start cups.service
And just in case, print a test page. But everything should work.

Just some more explanation why that is needed:
From
# upstream reverted back to common old naming scheme
if [[ $(vercmp 2.3.3+105+g59137acc1-1 $2) = 1 ]]; then
echo ">>> Cups systemd socket and service files have been"
echo ">>> renamed by upstream decision. Please make sure"
echo ">>> to disable/reenable the services to your need."
echo ">>> hint: \"pacman -Ql cups | grep systemd\" and"
echo ">>> \"ls -lR /etc/systemd/ | grep cups\" "
fi
}

This reminded me, I have not re-installed my printer since I re-installed EnOS, will start another thread, it is not working.
what does CUPS do?
Prints.
Thanks. I just found that by accident when I just couldn’t get my canon printer to work. I checked good old Arch Wiki and there it was.

CUPS is an opensource admin local printing server developped by Apple that gives you the possibility to setup your printers throw browser with:
http://localhost:631/
or CLI or GUI tools.

Does the EnOS printer wiki now need to be updated with the new service unit name?
This change actually makes me SOOOOOOOOOO happy. I was always irritated that every reinstall I could never remember what the cups service was called. So every time, I had to search for it, now it’s the same as every other distro!!!
You can use tab completion with systemctl so to figure out what cups services are there type
systemctl status cups<TAB>
On my box I get
$ sudo systemctl status cups
cups-browsed.service cups-lpd.socket cups.path cups.service cups.socket
I would always just do systemctl list-unit-files | grep cups

Yes, and you have to modify chrooted_cleaner_script.sh script in order to get a working cups out of the box.
I opened an issue on github: https://github.com/endeavouros-team/install-scripts/issues/20
