_____________________________
I am working at installing my printer and scanner, could be that I run into issues, could be that all works just well. Too early to say one way or the other, will post heads up on both here anyway, but will take a while, have to shut down the PC since RL work calls me, could be some days till I can finish installing printer and scanner…

Rava, nice catch. /usr/share/applications/qv4l2.desktop must be removed from 007-printing-xfce-lxde-lxqt-ob-deps-x86_64-x86_64-2018-03-19.xzm
su
toor
cache-module
# or
glib-compile-schemas /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas
# fixes issue and after this simple-scan can be run

Hi Blaze,
thank you very much for providing these modules.
I activated the modules (007-printing-x86_64-2018-04-21.xzm and 007-printing-xfce-lxde-lxqt-ob-deps-x86_64-x86_64-2018-03-19.xzm) and cups is up and running, the start page http://localhost:631/admin is fine. when i try to add a printer the following site occurs:
Unauthorized
Enter your username and password or the root username and password to access this page. If you are using Kerberos authentication, make sure you have a valid Kerberos ticket.
There is no difference if i run the browser as root. Unfortunately there is no popup questioning the credentials or the something like that. When i try to view the access log, the popup from basic authentication is shown and i can enter the credentials.
What am i missing?
kind regards
apollo
