CUPS - really did it now

[Tom Allison]

OK, I'm rather more confused than I was two days ago when I had some of CUPS 
working.

I have a server that seems to be working just fine.  Haven't changed anything 
there.

But now my client is really messed up and I'm rather confused about it.

I removed the package lpd.  Now I can't print to cups.  Before this, and 
currently, I have cupsys-bsd installed, but no information on how it's 
supposed to work.  /usr/share/doc/cupsys-bsd is a little sparse.

It would seem that I might need to reinstall lpd.  no...  Then cupsys-client 
and cupsys-bsd get listed for removal and I really don't want that.

So I thought maybe there was something in the /etc/printcap file that might 
be of some significance.  I had a remote printer defined from way back 
(years) and it was pointed to an IP address that was no longer in use.  So I 
don't think there is much there.

my line printer doesn't work.
I don't think Open Office does either, but right now I can't even get it to 
load...
...

I reconfigured (dpkg-reconfigure cupsys-bsd) and set the option to Yes. 
Still nothing going on.
