Thank you…I’ll give it a try next time i reboot. But one more thing if i may…Do you happen to know what this means?
Idle - "File "/usr/lib/cups/filter/brfaxfilter" has insecure permissions (0100777/uid=0/gid=0)."
It’s in the printer status of the cups web interface

You have to do it before you reboot, then reboot to see if it holds.

Never seen it. But google has some hits on ubuntu forums:

I have not read what it says, though.

It looks like i still have to restart it each time…blargh!
What does the following report after boot?
sudo systemctl status cups.service
For reference, I get

Let’s take a look at this too
ls -l /etc/systemd/system/printer.target.wants/cups.service
It should report similar to this
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 34 Apr 14 12:13 /etc/systemd/system/printer.target.wants/cups.service -> ///lib/systemd/system/cups.service
Heya deano! Thanks for replying. Here’s the output for the fist command…

Okay, so can you also check the status of
systemctl status cups.path cups.socket
Okey dokey
cups.path - CUPS Printer Service Spool Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/cups.path; enabled)

Well, that all looks okay. I’m not sure why the cups. service does not stay running. It does on mine. However, when it is enabled, it should at start on demand when you have a print job for example. Your printer is network-attached, is that correct? I recall this bug report (openSUSE 12.2), which may still manifest for some network printer situations. I have a mixture of printer configs, for home and work machines, usb and network-attached, that I connect to, and don’t experience this problem.
