Hi All! I've just done a test installation (on an external USB HD) to see how C7 works on my Acer Aspire netbook. Apparently the live install (I used this one: CentOS-7.0-1406-x86_64-livecd.iso) does not install CUPS. I've done "yum install cups" and got a ton of stuff installed, but it won't let me set up a printer in the printing applet in either Gnome or MATE (I prefer Mate). Adding a printer is greyed out, and I get told there is no server running. I thought I needed to start the printer service (cupsd???) but I can't find the system-config-services (or whatever it's named, if not that) app either. Also haven't found a systemd config for cups, either. I've tried adding /usr/sbin/cupsd to the system startup programs list, but that doesn't seem to help either. Obviously I'm overlooking something, and I'd appreciate a (helpful) slap upside the head, i.e., a gentl hint of where I've gone wrong. thanks a lot!
