What does 'lpstat -s' say? Even if the local cupsd is running, it may be that you have configured CUPS clients to use a different host.
They're all showing ///dev/null. The problem occurs when the Gnome printer manager tries to connect to the cupsd on "localhost", so the machine doesn't see ANY printers on the net (two of them are JetDirect printers and one is on my old FC6 machine). My F7 box sees them just fine and I can print to them. The F8t3 machine won't let me look at them, delete them from the F8t3 queues or print to them. I can't even delete them from a browser aimed at localhost:631.
Okay, if it says 'localhost' in the title bar of the printing configuration tool, it isn't the problem I thought it might be.
It sounds like you might be trying to delete queues that cupsd has found on the network by browsing -- you can't do that.
Could you attach your /etc/cups/cupsd.conf and /etc/cups/printers.conf files please?
Thanks, Tim. */
