Thanks!
I have done all this. Now I tried it again adding a new printer,  then w/o
being connected to print a test. It will just sit and wait and wait. So I
closed the page http://localhost:631/admin and tried to open it again w/o
being connected. The result was the machine froze, keyboard, second hand on
clock and I had to do a reset.
