I am wondering if someone might be able to assist me, someone completely new to Debian and relatively new to Linux........? To set up my Epson Stylus C43UX USB Printer, which works a treat with the C42UX driver in Linux.......... On my Acer 1355LC laptop.
I have ***not*** been able to connect through http://localhost:631 and unable to get the onto the cups server through the KDE peripherals Pinter wizard. Cups appears to be looking for a network, which is non existent, yet has some relevance to the hostname that I gave the system during the install, instead of leaving it as the default "Debian" This is the message that is in /var/log/cups/error_log I [18/Aug/2005:08:37:47 +1000] Listening to 0:631 I [18/Aug/2005:08:37:47 +1000] Loaded configuration file "/etc/cups/cupsd.conf" I [18/Aug/2005:08:37:47 +1000] Configured for up to 100 clients.

Logged in as root, I get an error message through Konqueror when I try to get to http://localhost:631 also, though I can't recall what it was at the moment. I would appreciate some assistance as I have googled this for some two weeks and am obviously using the wrong words, or no one else has experienced this problem and written it up or posted it anywhere. Thank you in advance.
