Even if the required services weren't enabled by default, I don't even have a printer, and my computer never leaves home to even think to connect to one, especially over a network.

I haven't had a need in a printer for literally 20 years. So guess what? I just uninstalled all CUPS packages yesterday, I don't need any of that anyways.

On the very rare occasion I might actually want something printed, I can get stupid high quality full color A4 page size prints for just $1 from our local print shop.
