You installed it using rpm, no? Under mandrake one needs to use urpmi, as its
urpmi that is having the problem.
I am not sure how to correct this problem, if there is one.
Now, let the configure your hardware stuff alone, Use the Cups software to
configure it all. Point your browser at http://localhost:631/ and fire away.
The CUPS web interface should come right up.
If you have problems with that, and its a pretty simple interface, then you
can click the on-line help link to get help from the cups website.
