Hi everyone,

I tried to install a new printer via the Printer Configuration GUI, but I always got an error message from CUPS saying "There was an error during the CUPS operation: 'cups-authorization-canceled'." I did a little bit of research on that but couldn't figure out how to solve the problem (yes, CUPS is running), so I installed the printer via the http://127.0.0.1:631/ and it

I have Fedora 17, KDE. I open Printer Configuration and choose New Printer. I a CUPS server error, "There was an error during the CUPS operation: ' cups-authorization-canceled'. The printer is plugged in.

Hi all:I got a headache to get the printer work. It is a brother 5250DN printer connected to internet, which have an web interface that can be accessed from ip address directly or hostname. All the windows machine in my office can connect to it with no problem, but under my linux the things does not go very well.

Hi all,I have a Canon MP600 printer/scanner connected via USB to a small print- and scan-server running Arch (last update was yesterday). The printer is shared over the network and can be accessed from a Windows 7 client. But from time to time after 1-2 prints the printer crashes. I that happens, only a power disconnect can bring it back.

I do not have a solution to your problem but I would suggest to point a browser to 127.0.0.1:631 and configure CUPS from that. You will inteact directly with CUPS and it is better for debugging. Now can you see your printer from there?

error dialog:

clicked on printer...selected "remove"

There was an error during the CUPS operation: 'cups-authorization-canceled'.

the printer is not connected...it is back at Office Depot

connected another printer and installed it...it works great...installed itself

NOW THIS is what I expect from Fedora

stay away from HP cheap printers

Just bought a brother $50 print

I Installed 12.04 in July, worked with the office printer perfectly. tried to print today and it wont.

in the printer settings dialog it says:

printing service not available.
