Hi
I have a working cups server and a working network printer.
The network printer requires a userid if you want to print a job.
If i send a job via cups, the printer says (in his built in display)invalid userID and is waiting for a manual input. The printer also schows that there is no userID at all transmitted.
I tried to provide the userID in the URI socket://userid@ip. => fail
Then i found the auth-info-required attribute and added it to the printer config as followed: Attribute auth-info-required username.
I was digging around in the manual and in the forums but could not really find an answer there.
What am i missing ?
Where am i wrong ?
Can anybody tell me how to provide the password ?
Thanks,
Roomer
