You can edit the CUPS config file and remove the Pause- Printer Resume-Printer Limits. I'm not exactly sure when this changed, in 10.5 a some point, more limits were added perhaps. Why? I don't know. How the printer pauses it's self to begin with, I don't know either.
This is a clip from the default CUPS config file where you can see the limits placed on pause etc.
# All printer operations require a printer operator to authenticate...

I have this happening with my macs that are running 10.5.8. This just started happening the last couple of weeks. Let me know if you find a fix. Thanks. Chery

I have started seeing issues on our 10.6 imac’s. When student’s try to print they get a message that the printer is paused. To unpause the printer they need local admin rights. I m using generic drivers for both the hp LaserJet 4700 and 4000. I have Google and found this issue brought up before “http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies-archive.cfm/1376655.html”. Any one else seeing this and found a work around. What is strange this is not happening with all students on all Mac’s. Did apple hire some Microsoft software developers lol Thanks Will |
