I'm having this same problem using the fully updated alpha Ubuntu 9.04 - the Jaunty Jackalope. I'm printing to a print server. I can print a test page, printing from other applications pop up the "can't promp for authorization" message. Following mannheim's post and editing /etc/cups/printers.conf...
sudo gedit /etc/cups/printers.conf ...and commenting out the line AuthInfoRequired username,password... # AuthInfoRequired username,password ...worked, but this is a real pain. Does anyone have any idea when this will be fixed? -- cups says "can't promp for authorization" when printing to my samba printer https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/283811 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
