"Failed to get a list of devices: 'Forbidden'", when list new printers on Kubuntu20.04
I installed a fresh Kubuntu-20.04, and created the first user(jacky) by means of the installer of Kubuntu, then I created the second user(leon), by using cmd-line tool "adduser
", and adding it into the group "root
" and "libvirt
".
Both of these two users can login KDE and do things normally, but only jacky can setup printers of the system. When I login with leon
and open "System Setting
-> Printers
", and click the button "Click here to add a new printer", I always get a error msg:
Failed to get a list of devices: 'Forbidden'
in a poped-up dialog box "Add a New Printer".
If with the user jacky
do so, no error occurs.
I guess these two users are different, but I don't know what difference is there and how fix it. Any hints?
Please Forgive my English!!!
Try adding your user "leon" to group "lpadmin" and log out and re-login again. I can't test this at the moment.
I'm getting the same error in openSUSE 15.2 KDE for my only user. In the journalD log, I see kde-add-printer libkcups: CUPS-Get-Devices last error: 1025 Forbidden
. I'm guessing it's the same for you?
