Hi. I just want everyone to know that my new clean install of lubuntu
16.04.1 did not seem to have CUPS. I had to:
sudo apt-get install cups
which I've never had to do before.
After executing the above command, system-config-printer was able to
detect my epson printer. Otherwise the "+ Add" button in
system-config-printer was greyed out.
I wonder if anyone else' installation of 16.04.1 was lacking CUPS.

I have not yet had occasion to install 16.04.1 yet, so I would not have
encountered it.
It was not a problem when I installed 16.04 (the original release), and
continued updates have not eliminated CUPS. Also, upgrading from 14.04
to 16.04.1 hasn't eliminated CUPS, but I would assume it would keep
software already installed, except for what is classified as obsolete,
or no longer needed.
Thanks for letting me know of your experience. I will keep that in mind
if I have occasion to do a clean install of 16.04.1.
