Hi list,
This is a problem which has happened a couple of times and i cant find a definitive solution. Sometimes my printer will stop and i cant restart it. Maybe its accepted some jobs it cant do and they build up in queue and it panics and just stops the printer - in kde printing manager > printer > start/stop printer and its stopped so stop is greyed out and start is available. Now when i click start it says i dont havehave access to the requested resource and its unable to modify the settings of the printer. Ive hit the administrator mode button, being root doesnt help. And no other user passwords work. Which user do i need to be to config printers here and how do i set up other users for it or maybe just allow any user to change settings here.
lppasswd -a -g sys <username> Supply the password twice and your good to go. The username can be any name you wish including a name that is _not_ a user. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
