Root Password Required To Print
Posted: Tue Jan 19, 2010 12:54 am
Hi,
I have a Canon MP520 connected to a Windows Vista desktop. The printer is shared for network printing. I am printing to it with my Ubuntu 9.10 laptop over a wireless network using TurboPrint 2.12-2. Each time I print over the network, a dialog pops up and I must enter my root password to print. I am not required to enter my root password if I connect the printer to a usb port on the laptop. Can you tell me what I need to do to keep from having to enter my root password to print over the network?
Thanks,
Frank
