Hi Jonathan. Thanks for the update on your life! (chuckle!) Congratulations on graduating university. :) I hope you still have time for Ubuntu or some form of Linux in your life. I am just clearing up these old bug reports that are still open from years ago. I will close the report now. Have a gr

*laughs* Indeed, I do not need this anymore. I've had time to graduate university (where CUPS was useful), move homes a bunch of times, change OSes, among other things. Have a good triage! On Thu, Nov 1, 2018 at 11:06 AM gf <856...@bugs.launchpad.net> wrote: > Hello Jonathan, > Thank you for sub

Hello Jonathan, Thank you for submitting this feature/enhancement request for the cups package. You made this request quite some time ago and Ubuntu has been updated since then. Do you think this feature/enhancement is still needed or can we close this bug report? Thank you again for helping

I can't believe this is still in. Is CUPS unused in enterprise environments? At our offce we identiy with an account number as to assign printout costs to department accounts rather than individual users.

As CUPS does not support setting the job user name as default, on system-config-printer we cannot do anything, as it is only for setting the defaults for a print queue. The print dialogs of the applications are not part of system-config-printer. So what needs improvement is: 1. CUPS, to allow job

This is a missing feature in CUPS upstream. CUPS has no possibility to set an alternative user as a default setting for a queue. Report this on the upstream bug tracking system of CUPS: http://www.cups.org/str.php ** Package changed: system-config-printer (Ubuntu) => cups (Ubuntu) ** Changed in

What you could try is to edit the URIs in the /etc/cups/printers.conf file. Stop CUPS, edit the file and after that start CUPS. You have to edit the URIs adding "@" before the host name. Turn ipp://cups.ncs.mcgill.ca:631/printers/mcgill_mono into ipp://jonall...@cups.ncs.mcgill.ca:631/printers
