[Casper] Admin Printer

Fri Jun 5 07:20:38 PDT 2009

I've done this successfully.  Works great.  You can scope the policy so that users only see printers that are in their building/department.

 Why not add the printers in casper admin and then make a self service policy that users can install them self?

 Go back to the Casper arhives in December and search for a post with this subject line:

 [Casper] Allow Non-Admin Users to Add Printers in Leopard

 There was a fairly lengthy discussion on how to do this by editing the cupsd.conf file to allow non-admins to add printers. I'd post the relevant pieces, but it is better to read the entire article.

 Right, I read this last week. However my department wants this done via a client level.

 Take a look at Apple's KB article with respect to 10.5.7

 They allow for this via group access.

 There are options in the cupsd.conf to make many of the printing options require (or not require) admin access. I think thats one of the options.

 I'm working on a base image and I figured out the CUPS for the pause printing etc. But how do I unlock the preference pane so anyone can add a printer? I changed permissions on the preference pane file and that didn't work.
