Seems like I can print exactly one times after 'lpadmin -p GDI-Printer -o auth-info-required=none'. Then for the next job the error-message is "Can't promt for autorization."
The first printing-job is printed normally, produces the following in /var/log/kern.log: Apr 29 09:31:31 simon-laptop kernel: [ 7597.702015] type=1503 audit(1240990291.780:14): operation="inode_permission" requested_mask="::rw" denied_mask="::rw" fsuid=7 name="/dev/tty" pid=15021 profile="/usr/sbin/cupsd" And changes the line in printers.conf back to: AuthInfoRequired username,password The second job does not add any line to /var/log/kern.log and does not re-write printers.conf and does not print. -- 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
