Aaron: Thanks for the input... Right now none of the printer services will start. I don't know what to do about 'cannot bind to lpd port 515'. As far as I know all services related to printing have been activated. The original printer setup (one local printer) was done using the graphical setup tool (cups, I thought). Any suggestions on how to diagnose and fix the fatal binding error? Are there any alternative print services that I can activate?
