Bug #349
open
- Target version changed from Gondwana update 1 to Squeeze
- Due date set to 08/29/2011
- Status changed from New to Confirmed
- Estimated time set to 1:00 h
It seems system-wide printing right management is lacking.
- Status changed from Confirmed to Ready for test
- % Done changed from 0 to 50
Added package cups-pk-helper in the list of packages to be installed, should solve the issue.
- Status changed from Ready for test to Resolved
- % Done changed from 50 to 100
- Estimated time changed from 1:00 h to 0:30 h
A window displayed with the following prompt
? ???? ????? test page ????? ???? ??????? (see attachment)
I think there is an encoding issue in our project management software. Could you please translate the messages in English?
Think I tried to use network printer that does require authentication.
I repeat test trying to add USB-connected printer and got the following error: CUPS server error. client_error_doc_format_not_supported
I may not have included all the necessary printing packages, since they've changed between Debian Lenny and Squeeze. Unfortunately I don't have any printer at home and can hardly test anything. I'll tell you as soon as I find something that could be missing.

Indeed even if the printing configuration panel can be shown, the user may not be able to add printers (and then to change them too). As indicated in the following bug report:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/policykit-desktop-privileges/+bug/847896
a solution is to remove the package cups-pk-helper and use the lpadmin group instead to allow users access printer administration. Tests were successful! This should also solve #556.
- Target version changed from 2012-05 to 2012-08
