I've got an identical problem. I've filed a bug report here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1700791 I think it was caused by: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1662408 I don't think it's triggered by "Shared"; but rather by "AuthInfoRequired" that changes from None or Username,Password to Negotiate. To work around it, here's what I did: - move /usr/lib/cups/backend/smb to /usr/lib/cups/backend/smb.real - write a script /usr/lib/cups/backend/smb to replace it: #!/bin/sh cat - | /usr/lib/cups/backend/smb.real "${@}" Remember to make it executable. You'll notice this just calls smb.real. The actual change is that this script exits with 0, so Cups never sees an error. Suddenly it doesn't trigger AuthInfoRequired, and actually prints. NOTE: this will be overwritten every time cups is upgraded. The workaround can be smarter if you change DeviceURI to something else (say smbworks://) and create a script accordingly. I do this at work for a printer that has every non-SMB port firewalled. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
