I have a web application that is run as www-data. I need to have cupsenable and cupsdisable accessible for that user. Its a server that isn’t connected to the internet and is running a small internal application and i NEED to be able to give the users the ability to re-enable a printer.
I have already made the executables permissions world executable.
Testing with …
sudo -u www-data /usr/sbin/cupsenable laser_01
cupsenable: Operation failed: client-error-forbidden
I just needed to add the user to the lpadmin group. I was over thinking this.
