Univention Bugzilla – Bug 32009
Cups printer moderation
Last modified: 2019-02-05 21:26:21 CET
In the scope of Bug #31902 support was added for printer restrictions from the computerroom module to work with cups printers. The current implementation only supports restricting access, not allowing it, as the implementation of permissions for univention-printserver would have been to big for an errata. Overriding printer restrictions (user, group) and allowing printing from certain ip addresses should be implemented. Denying access to cups printers is currently done by calls to univention-lpadmin, which modifies the Printer object. From there on the permissions can only be strictened, not relaxed. The approach was to model the access permissions completely with cups printer policies, however, it is only possible to grant users access with a policy, not deny it. +++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #31902 +++ The UCC integration into UCS@school should also cover the printer moderation.
