[newbie] printer and cups no longer available

[Rooms Fr�d�ric]

Hello,

I have just installed the update of the cups files with the Update tools from 
Mandrake (7.2 version). Since then, I can not print anymore.  The commands 
like lpd do not exist anymore.  When I try ton configure my printer with the 
cups tools, nothing happens. When I use the Printer tool from Mandrake, a 
dialog box says that the cups database is being rebuilt but after a few 
minuts disappear without doing anything else.

Has someone the solution ?

Thanks 

Frédéric Rooms
