Connection to Cups Server Failed

Nerdz · 25-June-07, 09:38 PM

OS: Knoppix 5.0 Fresh Install (5.1 wont work for some reason...)

I get a error when I start up KDE Print, "Connection to Cups Server Failed". To be more specific, it says Error: Host not Found. However, I log into http://box:631/printers/ I can set up the printer and I can even print a test page.

Is there anyway to fix this?

ADD: if I do get the printer to get added I get another error "Client Error Bad Request"

FIxed it. I switched to ubuntu, i'll give it a whirl for a while, although I dont like the gnome desktop system. Its a bug, and Im betting its Fixed in the Current Version of Kubuntu and Knoppix. Because of Some new thing they added into Knoppix, it wont run when my system gets too hot. I plan on investing on a new cooler for this thing soon.
