Printer settings - start service doesn't work

[qun]

Hi,
I try to install a printer within a templateVM and I read some tutorials, but it doesn’t work.

printer settings show “not connected”, if I try to start the service, it doesn’t start. If I try to connect to CUPS, I get “failed to connect to server”. So I can not add anything.

I try it on regular fedora 41 template.
There are also no printer settings under the system settings of the template.

cheers
