I have disabled ip v6 wherever I can find it.
but it still fails with :
Unable to open listen socket for address ::1:631 - Address family not supported by protocol.
when I run:
LINUXSUSE111:~ # lpstat -h localhost -r
lpstat: Unable to connect to server
LINUXSUSE111:~ #
Can anyone help to get the cupsd running correctly

To disable IPv6 globally:
YAST → Network Devices → Network Card
I don’t think that IPv6 is your actual problem; could be wrong. If after
reading the link given by caf4926 you are still having problems, it might
help if you posted the contents of your /etc/cups/cupsd.conf. You might also
want to verify that /etc/xinetd.d/cups-lpd has “disable” set to “no”.

when I open the printers icon in yast it comes up with restart the server in 30 secs some advice

and her is the new one with your suggestion. Note I have hashed out the ip6 referenced one.

and it WORKS!!!
or at least I am further on than before to the next problem
I might be interesting to know ( for anyone searching on this problem ) how all of those hosts got there. I have certainly never edited it?
