At the begining localhost:631 would refuse me,so I started looking around and the advice I found was to uninstall cups and all its files and folders so that I did.I reinstalled cups and gimp-print and tried again using kde's wizard and my printer is there [usb] the driver I have used before is there,looks good,but still will not print,I looked for cups in dmesg and I don't see it starting.What should I try next,thanks david
