Other printers (i.e. non-PostScript printers) need printer driver software plus a PPD file which matches exactly to the particular driver. Therefore the PPD files for non-PostScript printers are included in the printer driver RPMs, see "PPD files" and "Printer drivers" and "openSUSE printer driver software packages" in http://en.opensuse.org/Concepts_printing Regarding "only allow users to chose ppd files from that trusted directory": Is there something wrong with /usr/share/cups/model/ ? This is the standard directory where PPD files are installed. Regarding "let user only install printers with lowest prio": CUPS policies do not support such detailed adjustments, see http://www.cups.org/documentation.php/doc-1.5/policies.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Table 1: IPP Operation Names ... CUPS-Add-Modify-Printer Adds or modifies a printer. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I.e. either full permissions to add/modify a print queue or none. I don't know what PolicyKit can do - i.e. whether or not PolicyKit supports such detailed policy adjustments. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
