Greetings,
I have a problem with cups and can only find noise on google,
When I reboot, I have to reinstall my canon printer, this happens because a password is required to authenticate on cups, so that the printer can start.
CUPS does not accept any of my local accounts or root account details. Even if I go through my browsers, (Konqueror, firfox, mozilla) (localhost:631) Bring up a terminal window, and use the lppasswd(1) command to set up a CUPS password. as root: $ lppasswd -a <username> You will be prompted for a password.
Once you do this, restart the CUPS daemon:
$ rxcups restart
