(In reply to comment #4) > Is this a duplicate of bug #48414? I think so. My understanding of the original report is:
* There is no way to authenticate when printing using CUPS on the network [to a printer with AuthInfoRequired username,password in its printers.conf entry] * Whereas, in OpenOffice.org 1.2, there is a pop-up window requesting authentication [when attempting to print to such a printer] -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/943881 Title: [Upstream] Unable to print to password protected (cups) printer Status in LibreOffice Productivity Suite: Confirmed Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Hi! I'm on Precise using LibreOffice 3.5.0. Situation: Windows 7 PC with a printer shared on it (Password protected). Ubuntu Precise system that uses this printer in cups, and set to 'ask password when needed'. Now I can print perfectly from gedit for example. After sending the print job, I get a popup to enter the login & pass for the printer. But with LibreOffice it never asks the credentials, so the printing fails (ACCESS DENIED in cups). Think this should be fixed asap :) Cause not being able to print in an Office application ... :) --- ApportVersion: 1.93-0ubuntu2 Architecture: amd64 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.10 "Oneiric Ocelot" - Alpha amd64 (20110705.1) Package: libreoffice-core 1:3.5.0-1ubuntu4 PackageArchitecture: amd64 ProcEnviron: LANGUAGE=nl:en_AU:en TERM=xterm PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=nl_BE.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-17.27-generic 3.2.6 Tags: precise Uname: Linux 3.2.0-17-generic x86_64 UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to precise on 2012-02-19 (11 days ago) UserGroups: adm admin cdrom dialout libvirtd lpadmin plugdev sambashare --- ApportVersion: 1.93-0ubuntu2 Architecture: amd64 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.10 "Oneiric Ocelot" - Alpha amd64 (20110705.1) Package: libreoffice-writer 1:3.5.0-1ubuntu4 PackageArchitecture: amd64 ProcEnviron: LANGUAGE=nl:en_AU:en TERM=xterm PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=nl_BE.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-17.27-generic 3.2.6 Tags: precise Uname: Linux 3.2.0-17-generic x86_64 UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to precise on 2012-02-19 (11 days ago) UserGroups: adm admin cdrom dialout libvirtd lpadmin plugdev sambashare To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/df-libreoffice/+bug/943881/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
