i solved problem reinstalling everything. followed directions of http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2021854 in reverse, uninstalled cups, , rebooted measure. reinstalled cups , repeated directions again. believe must have missed step first time around, or made typo.

made sure client computers reinstalled printer drivers again, , seems working snappy.
