I have the same Problem here. My system: Intrepid, Samsung ML-1410 Laserprinter, Buffalo LinkStation as Samba-Server
When I delete all my printers (I have only this one) in system-config- printer 1.0.5 and add one like this: # Printer configuration file for CUPS v1.3.9 # Written by cupsd on 2008-12-07 12:13 <DefaultPrinter GDI-Printer> AuthInfoRequired username,password Info Location DeviceURI smb://192.168.0.3/lp State Idle StateTime 1228648383 Accepting Yes Shared Yes JobSheets none none QuotaPeriod 0 PageLimit 0 KLimit 0 OpPolicy default ErrorPolicy retry-job </Printer> then everything works. But when I add a second printer with same DeviceURI but with the Samsung-ML-1410-gdi.ppd instead of Default GDI, both (yes, also the Default GDI) give me the "Can't promt...." error and do not print. Then I delete the second one (Samsung-ML-1410-gdi.ppd) and the first (Default GDI) still says "Can't promt..." So I do not understand this problem, but maybe someone does and can fix it... I attached my printers.conf with working (0) and not working (1) Default-GDI printer. ** Attachment added: "printers_conf.tar.gz" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/20277823/printers_conf.tar.gz -- cups says "can't promp for authorization" when printing to my samba printer https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/283811 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
