Hi Polytropon,

Thanks for replying.

You are right. cupsd is not starting. At boot time, I get a message like :

/etc/rc : Failed to start cupsd
Warning : failed to read /usr/local/etc/cups/cupsd.conf

I will try and fix this on my own, but may need some more help from you 
if my efforts alone are not enough.

Regards
