Further to what Alan said, I don't even have print-manager installed here. I checked what would be pulled in if I did install it and found 10 dependencies, including the two Alan mentioned. Did you install print-manager explicitly, or was it pulled in by something else? I have 8 kde-base/*-meta packages installed but none of them have pulled in print-manager. Printing seems to work well enough here since I connected my printers to my workstation directly. My mini-server used to be a print server until a new version of CUPS was released a few months ago. I couldn't get it to share printers so I just moved them. -- Regards Peter
