Thank you very much Gene, You are the first person to ever mention that "the line was removed" for security paranoia, not that I mistakenly removed it by mistake over the past few months of it running under jessie and not running under stretch. This is what I wanted to find out, why did this

Yes, this worked without specifying an ip just localhost:631 The upgrade was from jessie to stretch and I had never edited this file, yesterday I didn't even know where it was. If this line is by default in this file and this file pre-existed on jessie how could that line be omitted? Or was the

Let us see. I HAVE explained I have done nothing to alter what existed from "stock" in Jessie (when cups) did work from the browser, right? Now it does not and I HAVE DONE NOTHING other than upgrading from stable to testing. And cups does not work. Now how would your question address this issue?

Has anything relating to those files changed between jessie and stretch to affect cups being blocked? Would a line in the allow file ALL: localhost:631 help or is the syntax incorrect?

Is there any difference between ext3 and ext4 in terms of backing up a system? I can't recall the details but I run into a backup problem once and remember reading that ext4 was under experimentation by the backup developers and ext3 was supported fully but not ext4. I am not sure if it was

reaching CUPS, as I should be able to, is the problem, not printing (that is a personal problem). Again, your help (Brian) is appreciated but it seems as the problem and the reason I am bringing it up here is not just to solve my own printer problem, as this I brought into myself last year by

Well I sure haven't changed anything other than upgrade packages. Now if some other package interferes with cupsd I don't know. I know I spent some days fighting :631 4-5 months ago to get it (the printer) to work. Cups worked fine then. I have not tried any other printer since. Obviously

I used to try and set up a printer through localhost:631 in Jessie but now in stretch it is impossible. I foung some link about /etc/hosts.allow and deny and tried a few things but still no luck. Maybe I am not using the correct statement and tried localhost and 127.0.0.1 but still no luck.
