Do not edit /etc/cups/printers.conf while cupsd is running, as cupsd is modifying it. So first stop cupsd:
sudo systemctl stop cupsd then edit the file and after that start cupsd again: sudo systemctl start cupsd Note that you only can edit the properties of permanent print queues. Queues which get temporarily created by CUPS or cups-browsed will loose the changes once they get removed and re-created. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1849859 Title: smb printing fails To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/1849859/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
