Tried that thanks for responding (presumably from the bare ubuntu 
desktop?). When I hit the windows key I get what you may call the black 
dashboard of Unity. Then I ask it to search for groups and it returns 
nothing.

Would this be a Unity problem?

Regarding the access to printers, I now find my other PC cannot access 
printers so I thought it might be a cups problem. So I restarted that 
but still nothing.

Still baffled I'm afraid - sorry.
