Hallo, I installed a canon remote printer with the help of the http://localhost:631 page in my browser, after starting cups manually with the command /etc/rc.d/cups start as root. The test page of the localhost:631 was printed perfectly. Now my problems: 1. Where can I place a command or change a variable in order to start cupsd during the boot procedure automatically ? In former SuSE's there was a configuratioin file variable to be adapted, which I cannot find anymore. 2. When trying to print a little file with kwrite a message comes up "error ocurred while retrieving the printer list. The ipp request failed for unknown reason". The same happens btw., if I open the control center and then try to call the printer manager. 3. The printer manager from StarOffice don't offer the new installed "remote printer" queue from cups. Can somebody please tell me what is happening and what should I do ? BTW: cups ( 1.1.14 ) , Staroffice, kwrite and others are working perfectly in my "linux-from-the-scratch" installation. Thank you for any hints, Beatriz
