Hello, I'm wondering how others deal with printing in Ubuntu. I use a centralized CUPS server so that all printers just show up for users. What I want is
- Easy for end users (no driver installation) - Allow or block access to certain users and groups CUPS has this functionality built in, but it's broken in 12.04. When unauthorized to print, clients effectively DOS attack cups server<http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=689991> No notice of permission issue or chance to provide credentials to print<https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/989852> Does anyone have a solution? Samba perhaps? Am I the only person in the world encountering these issues? In the meantime I've just removed all access restrictions but it's not ideal in a school environment where students shouldn't be printing color images of cats, etc. Best, David Burke
