Thanks Paul. The http printer manager comes up but I can't delete remote 
printers there either.

Several of the extra printers have now disappeared from the Gnome 
Printer Configuration.
After some investigation, the remaining printers are just from drivers 
still set up on the remote
computer. ( A Mac Powerbook in another office)
  The good news is that I can now print to that office. (new mac OS) 
Couldn't before.

Thanks,
Bradley
