Status in cups package in Ubuntu: Expired Bug description: Have an issue with network printing. I keep getting this error tree connect failed (NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED). I don't know why but out of nowhere this started. Somehow, it wants a password but none have been set. So, I read the printers.conf file after setting up the printer BUT before doing a print test. sudo gedit /etc/cups/printers.conf # Printer configuration file for CUPS v1.3.9 # Written by cupsd on 2009-04-18 09:11 <DefaultPrinter Canon-i950> Info Canon i950 Location DeviceURI smb://192.168.0.4/i950 State Idle StateTime 1240060296 Accepting Yes Shared Yes JobSheets none none QuotaPeriod 0 PageLimit 0 KLimit 0 OpPolicy default ErrorPolicy retry-job </Printer> Looks good. Then trying to test print it reads; # Printer configuration file for CUPS v1.3.9 # Written by cupsd on 2009-04-18 09:11 <DefaultPrinter Canon-i950> AuthInfoRequired username,password Info Canon i950 Location DeviceURI smb://192.168.0.4/i950 State Idle StateTime 1240060296 Accepting Yes Shared Yes JobSheets none none QuotaPeriod 0 PageLimit 0 KLimit 0 OpPolicy default ErrorPolicy retry-job </Printer> It adds AuthInfoRequired username,password bt itself! I tried to delete AuthInfoRequired username,password but it simply rewrites the line. How can this be fixed?
