I am on a CentOS machine. Everything is working fine, I can configure the printer with the GUI System->Administration->Printing. It asks for root password and then I can make the configurations. But I couldnt find a way I could let the normal user on the system to configure printer for himself.
- So isnt it possible for a normal user to configure printers?
- So what would be the best practice to achieve this? With sudo or some other configurations.
Update: I wonder why it doesnt work with sudo either or am I missing something?
I tried to give privilege to the user beginer to run the command /usr/bin/system-config-printer . I tried with visudo
beginer ALL=(ALL) /usr/bin/system-config-printer
But on the terminal when beginer runs sudo /usr/bin/system-config-printer after giving the password this error is thrown.
Sorry, user beginer is not allowed to execute '/usr/bin/system-config-printer' as root on HOST.DOMAINNAME .
