Hello,
We use a Xerox WorkCenter M24 in our building.
The Printer is connected to the network through lpd and port 9100 and needs authentication.
Now my problem is, i have to install the printer on osx 10.5, but i can't tell cups the username and password.
By printing on the terminal with "lpr -U" i can tell him the username, but i still can't provide the password.
The windows driver offers an option "Specify Job Owner" where i can provide the password.
Is it possible to define the job owner and the password somewhere in cups?
thanks,
Alex
