Printer Configuration

Post by bin bash »

Hello,
I would like to setup my printer on Salix 14.2.
The printer is a Brother DCP-7030.
When I connect to localhost and attempt to add printer, I get this message.
"Unable to add printer:

Forbidden" :?:

This is a known problem with the beta.

Find this line in /etc/cups/cups-files.conf:

Code: Select all

SystemGroup sys root
and add "wheel" at the end like this:

Code: Select all

SystemGroup sys root wheel
Restart the cups service:

Code: Select all

sudo service restart cups
and you should be OK.
