No, it doesn't use (or even look into) cups-old folder. It's only a backup reference. You can delete it if you don't need it anymore.xav795 wrote:Hi,
I have followed the step by step, but i get the same error message concerning the permission.
I can see that i still have an old cups directory named cups-old. Can it interact with the active one?

Based on your description above so far, the last thing that came to mind is filesystem corruption. Yes, a borked filesystem can prevent CUPS from printing .....
I've seen this happened mostly on full hdd installs (I had this problem twice myself many months ago. I don't use hdd installs anymore), seldom occurs on frugal installs but it can still happen. Since you mentioned that you can print from puppy430, then I suggest doing a fresh boot from puppy with pfix=ram and fsck your partition or savefile. If it's a minor thing then it should be fixable. If the corruption is beyond repair then you will need to rebuild your partition or savefile.
