Hello Brian, Yes. Originally root and user had same password. Couldn't login and luckily found that old issue, changed root password and then the problem was solved. I'm unable to reproduce this issue on another Debian machine I have which has the same cups package but has been updated more recently. Right now I don't have access to the machine that had the problem, but I'll try to reproduce the error again on monday changing the password to the old one. Let me know if there is any other information I could provide that would be useful to you. Best, Ignacio
