Well I am on the way to fixing the problem. On further playing around
I booted off the live CD and played with System on the panel, when right
clicking I now see the edit menus option, and when I did that on the live
cd I wrote down what was in properties on that and tried entering the same
on my booted version. It gave me the not found error but now I knew what
to search for so I next brought up Synaptic. I searched for
"System-config printer"
and found it and it wasn't installed. I marked it and installed it. Then
retried
the printer setup under System/Administration, I now have my usual setup
window pop up. Now I will try to connect to my window print server. I may
need to play with Samba to be able to see the printers but I have been down
that road before and I have a desktop using 9.10 all set up so I can use it
as a guide. But I think I remember that I need to make sure my network
workgroup is as it is at home.
