When I try to add my printer I get "Unable to retrive printer list" Connection to cups server failed. Make sure it is properly installed and connected. Whats my next move?

Thanks

Try this:
Open a root shell, K-> knoppix -> root shell

type cupsd (to start the cups daemon)

Try to set up the printer again.

Hi HTH

Thanks, that got my printer up and working. Now on to my modem problems.

Never mind...I was going to ask for details about your modem but noticed your modem post.
