It seems to know which cups to install but cannot find the rpm.

that usually can be fixed by clearing yum cache.
why you removed cups with a --nodeps is beyond my comprehension but the
following might work...
yum clean all
yum install cups
yum update
Try that and see if it installs cups
Craig
I thought removing cups would clear up any faulty connections, it has
worked for
me in the past.
[david@reddwarf burner]$ rpm -qa |grep cups
cups-pdf-2.4.6-3.fc8.i386
apcupsd-std-3.10.18-1.i386
gutenprint-cups-5.0.1-5.fc8.i386
cups-libs-1.3.4-4.fc8.i386
cups-1.3.4-4.fc8.i386
libgnomecups-0.2.2-11.fc8.i386
[david@reddwarf burner]
Cups is now installed I had to do the manual method.

I hope that did not include --nodeps
Please tell me that didn't including installing with --nodeps
----
yum updated 31 files but no cups yet
Still not printing.

now back to my earlier thread...
OK, you need to register and then start cups...
/sbin/chkconfig cups on
/sbin/service cups start
Then you will have to see if printer is still set up...probably easiest
to just use 'Administration' => 'Printing'
set up printer, apply changes, click 'Print Test Page'
until you get a test page to print, don't bother with any other program.
Fix the settings
Craig
I do not know if this will affect this problem but I have just remembered
That I use HP's driver hplip for my printer.

I'm sort of done with trying to help when you won't do what I suggest,
there's little point of continuing on
Craig
I only have a "Administration' => 'Printing' in "KDE --> settings -->
printers "
and it only sets up a fax system,if I go to "kDE control--> center -->
peripherals--> printers"
wont work because it cannot access "localhost:631.
I hope this answer helps you as I find it difficult to follow all the
postings.
