I had this/similar problem after a reinstall. didnt find any solutions on forums etc. complete CUPS removal, and it took gnome desktop as well; and reinstall fixed it.

Hi
can anybody tell me in a line or two how to undo ubuntu breaking cups. Much ranting on the forums, words by Jeff, but no one liners ...

My cupsd.conf IS correct

CUPS runs on localhost, but does not broadcast, or print (but the www interface at 631 is working) to the rest of the network

The forums talk of ubuntu's closed ports policy

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/log/cups# netstat -anp |grep 631
tcp 0 0 192.168.5.254:631 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 7690/cupsd tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:631 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 7690/cupsd
Thanks, it will save me spelunking ...
