On my SuSE 9.1 box, I used to be able to print using my Epson C46 printer, = using the driver of the C42UX. Now, for some reason, it doesn't work anymore. When I try te configure the = printer using YAST, I get the error message after the printer is recognized= by Yast and the driver of C42UX is chosen and then a test print made. The = error message is: "An error occurred while communicating with the CUPS server while saving qu= eue y2test. cups(File)DoRequest error: client-error-not-authorized." Any suggestions in solving this? -- Frits Wüthrich

What does "Now" mean? I cannot guess what you have done until "Now". Do you still use Suse Linux 9.1 or did you do any update or what did you change?

When you run YaST as root on localhost, there is no need for any of the "lppasswd" stuff which is described here http://portal.suse.com/sdb/en/2003/09/jsmeix_print-einrichten-90.html I assume you may have set something special in your cupsd.conf. View the CUPS error_log and use for example grep -v ^# /etc/cups/cupsd.conf | grep -v '^$' to list only the active settings in cupsd.conf. See the "CUPS Software Administrators Manual" about the meaning of the various settings in cupsd.conf. Alternatively you may have specified a remote CUPS server in /etc/cups/client.conf or via the CUPS_SERVER environment variable. In this case the remote CUPS server would be used and this server would by default deny remote admin access.

Is this printer a locally connected printer or a network printer?
Whenever I have difficulty configuring a printer, I normally bypass YaST and
go to CUPS.
http://localhost:631
before you can use CUPS directly to manage your printers, you need to use
the lppasswd command to set up passwords.
Note that I agree with what Johannes says.
