With as little administrative effort as possible, I need to update the CUPS on my iMac to the latest version because apple updates don't do a thing. When I do a disk repair permissions, it doesn't do anything either.

I appreciate the help. thanks.

Welll the suggestion I wrote above doesn't seem to work! sorrry for not fixing you. I will give all of this up because you say my suggestions are always wrong Goodbye MacOSX.com!!!

Why do you insist that you need to update CUPS? Do you have even a hint of evidence that there is anything wrong with your CUPS installation?

Hint: If your computer prints, then your installation of CUPS is working.

You have already been told that CUPS is an integral part of MacOS X. If your iMac needed to have its installation updated, then it would have been updated. You appear to have an issue with your network setup. That is where you need to be expending your energy.
