cups issue

Hi All

I am having printing issues again;  I rebooted recently and my printer configuration is gone and anytime I attempt to detect the printer again, It never finds it and cups says its already started.  However, when I attempt to go to localhost:631, it tells me that it cannot find the server

Re: cups issue

Actually, the phrase from localhost:631 is Cannot connect to destination (localhost)

Re: cups issue

Hi

I've already got this problem "Unable to connect to localhost"

As Mojo said on the forum stop cups, delete cups.sock and restart cups :

#pkill cupsd

Here the command #pgrep cupsd doesn't any number

#rm /var/run/cups/cups.sock

Here the command #pgrep cupsd return a number
