Bug ID: 452579
Summary: Printing on an ipp printer that requires
authentication does not ask for a password and
consequently does not print
Product: print-manager
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: dantt...@gmail.com
Reporter: christ.de...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Printing on an ipp printer that requires authentication does not ask for a
password and consequently does not print. The only way I found it to work is to
set it up using the full ipp:// url like so: ipp://user:p...@server.com.
Note that this leaks on the password in clear text into the system log, as
pointed out in bug 441948.
When the printer is set up without providing the password in the url, printing
does not work.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Add an ipp printer that requires authentication
2. Print a document
3. You will not be asked for authentication
OBSERVED RESULT
The document will not be printed
EXPECTED RESULT
The user should get asked for the username and password. Also the system should
ask if the password should be saved into KWallet.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: Manjaro Linux
KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.91.0
Qt Version: 5.15.3
Kernel Version: 5.16.14-1-MANJARO (64-bit)
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I tested the same thing on Linux Mint (with Cinnamon) and over there I get
asked for a password when printing. Also on Gnome it should work too.
