If I understand correctly cups 1.6.1 needs avahi-daemon to run which needs dbus running beforehand. In arch-proper these are going through systemd. In archpup may need some work in init.d/rc.conf to get them going properly. Avahi-daemon is missing altogether for example, and cupsd.conf is from an earlier version.smil99 wrote:simargl, oui:
Made some progress with cups.

Since you re-installed from the repo, see if you can start /etc/rc.d/avahi-daemon manually and then start cupds and see how this works. (sorry not much time till after the holidays )
