I have un-installed and re-installed cups. I used the add printer feature from the menu items under my name. It comes up with various items that can be changed and printer is one of them. It is locked so I unlocked it with the root password. I went through all the steps and at the very end it says 'printer could not be added'. I then tried from the main menu under system tools and it did the same thing. When I plug the printer in before a message would pop up and ask if you wanted to install it, now there is nothing.
