Default Printer creation user rights

Hi, I would like to know if it's possible to give a user, the rights to access only the yast printer creation and nothing else in yast, if YES , what must be done?
If NO, is there another way to doing this?

Default Re: Printer creation user rights

Hi. Don't know if that works with Yast. But root can setup printers with the cups webinterface, too. There's a command called "lppasswd". When run run this as root you can make any users a cups administrator. Then they can setup and modify printers via http://localhost:631.
Code:
lppasswd -a someuser
Good luck!
