10.5: Disable printer queue password requirements
If this works, does it follow that removing "CUPS-Add-Modify-Printer" from the block below will allow anyone to add a printer?

Better than doing this on the command line, open a browser to localhost:631, and edit the configs there. This allows you to remove the offending lines and restart CUPS w/o restarting the computer.

10.5: Disable printer queue password requirements
I've been to that site, but it advocates a sledgehammer approach rather than a scalpel approach. If you want to go from totally locked down to totally open, then that's the way to go. I do not want to go to totally open. I want to selectively grant rights.

I ghave not seen this to be the case. I have several mbps that I create a 10.5.2 image for and have never seen this. The users are all standard users. Also they have been upgraded to 10.5.5 and still no issues with pausing and resuming. They are not bound to AD. Is this a AD issue? I actually just verified this to see if I was crazy or not.

Yes, it does mean that you can grant them add/remove rights. The caveat is that your users will still not have the ability to unlock system preferences, so they cannot add printers via the print and fax prefpane. They will have to add them via the "Add Printer" pulldown in the print dialog pane, or you can create an alias to /System/Library/CoreServices/AddPrinter.app in their dock/desktop/apps/whatnot. |
