problem solved - cups not installed. 15 has a choice of desktop, developer or webserver for installation. I chose developer not realising that in its zeal to prevent global warming, Redhat does not encourage developers to use printers. Apparently developers are not expected to use office or most of the system-config utilities also. Thanks guys for your help.
