No need to worry. Configuring Cups as one of the Startup Applications is one way of solving it. The solution you obtained on the forum is equally efficient.
Now that your problem has been solved I am changing the status to "Invalid" as it was a configurational issue. Kindly revert it back to "New" if you think otherwise. ** Changed in: cups (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid ** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 554172 system services using "console output" not starting at boot -- printer is not detected when i restart. printer is detected when "sudo service cups start" is run https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/627410 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
