Applications/System Tools/SliTaz Panel http://tazpanel:82 ,is the control box
replacement in SliTaz 4.
Most software in Slitaz that uses a daemon server like cups is not configured to auto-start on boot when it's installed.
Post install cupsd is started,but on reboot it's not. This is why it works if you re-install but fails on reboot.
/etc/init.d/cupsd start
or to autostart cupsd on boot
Add cupsd to /etc/rcS.conf to RUN_DAEMONS=
sorry about the not too clear way of putting the request forward.
I had this problem some months ago with slitaz-3 and the disappearing of the printer after being set-up and Trixar was kind enough to point out that I have to add cupsd before slim in the initialization section of the control box.
now I am having the same problem with slitaz-4.
I followed your advice and arrived at tazpanel, but don't know how to proceed to add cupsd in order to make it active on booting.

Tazpanel doesn't have initialization configuration.
Open terminal, su , password: root
leafpad /etc/rcS.conf
RUN_DAEMONS="dbus hald slim firewall httpd cupsd"
File/Save
File/Quit
Mojo,
did what you suggested, but still have no printer.
so tried system tools > hardware detection and driver > printer to re-install.
but terminal stops at prompt "cannot start cups at daemon, cups had already been running".
re-installation was not successful.
reboot and re-try the above steps, still same results.
Open terminal as root:
pkill cupsd
pgrep cupsd
No number returned means cupsd is not running.
Check that there is no /var/run/cups/cups.sock
If cups.sock is there delete it.
/etc/init.d/cupsd start
Should start cupsd OK
pgrep cupsd
Returns a number to verify it's running.
Click on this address for cups web interface: http://localhost:631/
Login and configure your printer

Mojo, can I do something similar with wirelles and Samba?
Start smbd and nmbd on boot:
Add samba to RUN_DAEMONS=
Not sure what wirelles is.
If you mean wireless.
/etc/network.conf
# Set default interface.
INTERFACE="wlan0"
# Wifi connection.
# Enable/disable wireless connection at boot time.
WIFI="yes"
Mojo,
sorry for the delayed reply, for some reason, my area cannot login slitaz forum for the whole of yesterday.
I tried your way until I came to reconfigure the printer, don't know how to, so I deleted the printer and re-installed again.
now it works, and thanks very much for your help.
