Tim Waugh 2015-01-22 10:13:38 UTC Doc Text Cause:
HPLIP did not correctly handle CUPS denying a requested operation such as enabling/disabling a printer.

Consequence:
Operating hp-toolbox as a non-root user would not prompt for root password when required for an operation.

Fix:
The password callback is now correctly implemented.

Result:
Operating hp-toolbox as a non-root user prompts for root password when required.

Doc Text Cause:
HPLIP did not correctly handle CUPS denying a requested operation such as enabling/disabling a printer.

Consequence:
Operating hp-toolbox as a non-root user would not prompt for root password when required for an operation.

Fix:
The password callback is now correctly implemented.

Result:
Operating hp-toolbox as a non-root user prompts for root password when required.
Previously, HPLIP did not correctly handle CUPS denying a requested operation, such enabling or disabling a printer. As a consequence, operating HP Device Manager as a non-root user did not prompt for the root password when the root password was required for an operation. With this update, the password callback is correctly implemented, and operating HP Device Manager as non-root user now always prompts for the root password when required.
