I have an HP G55 hooked to usb port 0. All indications are its OK, but test print says it completed successfully but nothing prints. When I go to localhost:631 and select Admin printers and then try to change configuration it asks for a password and ID I use Root and its password but it tells me it cannot authicate it. Where do I grant authority for this. i am new to Linux and am not sure what needs to be done.
Any help will be appriciated.
You should go to /etc/cups/cupsd.conf. Read the comments in the file, as the manual says nothing about this issue. You'll have to have CUPS listen to the correct port, and down toward the end, just comment out the lines in the ?? /admin> section. That should do the trick for you. Also check out cups.org - they have a mailing list too.
