I would like to install cups-1.6.1-2
(link) from the experimental repository.
I suppose I have to add something to /etc/apt/sources.list
but I can't figure out what.
Can anyone figure out (or know) how to add the experimental repo?

The Experimental repository is a Debian repository, not an Ubuntu repository.
I would NOT RECOMMEND using the Experimental repository as a source for anything. It has a lot of packages which can break everything, hence the name "Experimental".
CUPS 1.6.1-2
exists in Raring. Once raring is released, you can use Raring.
Edit sources.list: '/etc/apt/sources.list'
Add the repo URL like below. 'deb http://dev.zenoss.org/deb main stable'
You probably shouldn't mix Debian and Ubuntu repositories:
Mixing Debian and Ubuntu repositories will likely render your system unmaintainable. The package dependencies may introduce contradictions which leads to a deadlock situation.

1.6.1-2
? I can create a PPA that can hold that package if you really need it, but I can't recommend to ANYONE to use Experimental's repository
