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)
How does one fix this.
Thanks Chad
# lppasswd -g sys -a root it will ask you a password with a nunber in it. for the root user, create one. ( this password is for cups admin loging) then restart cups # rc cups restart and voila. login as root using the password fx (lifted from http://forums.suselinuxsupport.de/lofiversion/index.php/t1902.html)
