Cups error_log
I'm using Samba 3.2.3-1.1 on a 64-bit AMD with OpenSuse 11.0. I was able to
print without difficulty using 32-bit OpenSuse 10.1 on an older computer, but
now I'm stuck. Cups and KDE tell me I've successfully sent a test page to the
printer but nothing happens. (My printer is connected to a Windows XP machine
on my local network.) I've tried setting various passwords with lppasswd.
I'm not sure where to set RunAsUser no. Attached please find my Cups
error_log.
I've tried every Samba printing how-to I could find. Would you please publish
the correct procedure?
This is what Cups has to say about the confusion using SuSE

SUSE: What Password Do I Use At The Web Interface?

SuSE defaults to using Digest passwords and "RunAsUser yes", which means you
have to use the lppasswd command to add accounts and passwords.
To add a user named Steve:
lppasswd -a Steve
Then enter and confirm a password.
SUSE does not follow the normal CUPS defaults and the lppasswd information
doesn't follow changes to the normal accounts, causing a lot of confusion.
Any problems using this set up should be addressed to SUSE.
To set SUSE to the standard default settings of CUPS:
1) Goto /etc/cups/cups.conf
2) Change in
