I have lots of 8.2 boxes on which cups works just fine. Then there's this other one...
As the GUI tools have previously worked for me where cups is concerned, I have never looked beyond them. On the problem box, when I access Hardware > Printer under the Control Center, it says that something or someone has set cups to not automatically start at boot and asks if I would like to turn this back on. I answer yes and at the next boot, it fails to start and I can repeat this loop for as long as it seems like fun. (not long) If I go into System > Services, I see that cups is not running and not set to start at boot. I can start it from there (and it works), but my attempts to click the "On boot" button don't stick. i.e. Exit from Control Center then jump back in and the "On boot" button is off again. This is a standard 8.2 install with only security and bugfix updates applied. Security level is set at Standard (i.e. low). Can anyone point me at the appropriate config files that determine cups starts and stops? TIA Brian
