It seems when I installed SNAP, CUPS stopped working. So I removed and
reinstalled it and I get:

sudo systemctl status cups

sudo systemctl status cups cups.service - CUPS Scheduler

Not knowing systemd, my guess at a glance is that these messages are
merely reporting a too quick retry to start the service, but not the
failure that triggered these restarts.

You'll want, like Lawrence said, to check logs. Cups logs, not systemd
logs. Or some cups-specific section of systemd logs (again, no idea of
how systemd handles this, at least on a UNIX-like system cups will have
log files under /var/log/cups/).

Such a situation must not occur.
systemd handles that and maybe there is a bug in the unit, but this
needs to be investigated.
