I am using 8.0Pro and would like to know if someone can tell me how to set up CUPS for use with HPOJ 9.0 or if there is another HPOJ that I should be using. TIA David

First, is cups running? # ps -deaf | grep cups Second, try adding a printer by using the web interface (http://localhost:631) Print a test page. You will need to provide your root password to add a printer. I am assuming your system recognizes your printer... You may want to do some reading at www.linuxprinting.org. They have a nice printer database that recommends which driver works best with CUPS and your printer. Josh

I like to use "socklist" , it's easy to remember. Just look for 631. -- use Perl; #powerful programmable prestidigitation

When trying to install cups with apt-get I get the following:> Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these: Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies: cups: Depends: cups-client (= 1.1.15) but 1.1.12-69 is to be installed cups-client: Conflicts: plp Conflicts: lprold Conflicts: lprng but 3.8.5-49 is to be installed lprng: Conflicts: cups-client but 1.1.12-69 is to be installed E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution). Do I need to remove the conflict packages. TIA David

That has NOTHING to do with his question. Yes you do need to remove the conflicting package in order to install cups. Ken

Thanks to all of you, I now have CUPS installed, still have a few config problems but will try to see if I can work them out. David
