cups failed :gconf

Still working on cups. I can install a printer and everything is fine, but I cannot print. when I tail /var/log/messages.log I get the following
an  8 18:28:19 gconfd (root-25343): Resolved address "xml:readonly:/etc/gconf/g      conf.xml.defaults" to a read-only configuration source at position 2

looked up gconfd and found that it is something I dont understand even reading the gconf man. I know that root/gconf is empty, etc/gconf.xml mandatory is empty, etc/gconf/2 is a file like resolv and I dont know if I should modify it or what info to put in it. Can anyone explain it just a bit?

Re: cups failed :gconf

CUPS manages printing, not gconf. See /var/log/cups/ for logs.

it looks like Default client is an error. Then I checked /var/log/cups/err0r_log and got the following

It looks like there is no default client again. When I use manage printing through localhost 631 I can go through all the steps and the printer is found and sets up fine. If I try KDE print configure everything is blank and nothing will work. No buttons work.
