I recently upgraded from opensuse 10.1 to 10.2

My office has a Canon ImageRunner 2800, a networked digital
copier/printer/scanner. For these type of Canon copier/printers there is
a shell script from BrightQ that configures the device. The file is
called

canon-brightq-2.3.0-linux-2006-04-14.run

and is 43 mb in size

Running this script in 10.0 and in 10.1 worked perfectly, and gave me
access to all the features of the device. Now when I run the script it
is fine until the last step, then it gives the error message

add printer failed client-error-not-authorized

This looks like a permission error to me. Note that I run the script as
root.

<snip>

lppasswd -a -g sys <some_user_name>

supply password twice

If you have not already done so.

Or maybe I am wrong on this, is it still needed in 10.2?

Thank you Ken for the quick reply.

Your message reminded me that I had run the command

lppasswd -a -g sys root

and added the root passwd. I forgot that originally upon running the
configuration command "codehost-config", I got three error messages.
Running the command you suggested eliminated two of the error messages, but
left the error message in my original message

add printer failed client-error-not-authorized

I reran the lppasswd command and restarted the cups daemon, but still get the
same error message.
