Hello,
since /var/lib/samba/printers is owned by root:root and it's 755, thus
cupsaddsmb fails to work as a non-root user. In the example below
- user luca belongs to the lpadmin group
- /etc/samba/smb.conf is a plain etch one with
########## Printing ##########
printer admin = @lpadmin
[print$]
write list = @lpadmin

=====
I thought this was a wishlist, but then I came to the conclusion that
this is a real bug, since a default smb.conf has "invalid users = root"
and clearly states that even other non-root users can manage printers
(drivers and properties).
I used the lpadmin group because it's created on postinst by cupsys (and
cupsys-client) and thus it sounds the best group to me.
Thx, bye,
Gismo / Luca
