When in doubt, ask Google.

Google has 43 links for "RHCE COPS"
  http://www.google.com/search?q=RHCE+COPS&ie=ISO-8859-1&hl=en&meta=

Many of these are non-english. The first one in English, by the way, 
is ours.

Google has 123 links for "RHCE CUPS"
  http://www.google.com/search?q=RHCE+CUPS&ie=ISO-8859-1&hl=en&meta=

where CUPS is Common Unix Printing System.

And, of course, the difinitive guide, the Red Hat RHCE study guide page at:
  http://www.redhat.com/training/rhce/examprep.html

says nothing about either.

If I had to guess, I'd focus on CUPS.
