CUPS : Unable to connect to server ??

Sat May 22 20:53:44 PDT 2004

Hi,

After using mandrake 8.2 over the last two years, i meet some trouble with my printer setting since i install mdk 9.2.
I have looked through several forums, read CUPS, Man, but i have not any progress with CUPS and why i have CUPS Server error (See below).
I'm root and my epson stylus 870 (USB) is a local printer.
I suspect it is something very basic but what ???...

Below are some diagnostic output. If anyone can help me get this sorted out i would be very
grateful.

Best regards, jérome
