Hello all,
I am trying to configure CUPS and when I click on Adminitrator to Add A Printer, I get Forbidden after entering my root username and password. Anything I’m doing wrong?? In the past, it was just a matter of putting my username and password and walking though the installation. The printer is connected to the computer via USB and is being seen on the machine. Any help would be greatly appreciated…
Best Regards,

Hello all,
Please disregard, to whomever will encounter problems, it seems as though ALL-IN-ONE printers are problematic when obtaining drivers.. HP has great support for Linux. This is the site that i went to :
HP OfficeJet Linux driver project
Just follow the instructions and everything will work!!

Try
sudo lppasswd -g sys -a root
Then see if you get CUPS administration access.
Edit: Thanks for your update. You must have had another issue huh?
