cups and selinux on fedora

[Gergely Buday]

Hi there,

I installed a Samsung unified driver for my printer and it did not
work. It turned out that

setenforce 0

cured the problem. But this is strange - shouldn't there be an selinux
rule for cups so that it can print? Which package has the bug then?
Cups, selinux or the proprietary driver?

Most likely the Samsung packages is installing files with bad labels.  I would
look at the content that the Samsung package installed and run restorecon on it.

I also had problem with installing that driver for
a Samsung CLX3175FN 
and I still can't get it to print on a PC .

I had to set about 7-8 Selinux rules to get it to print on a Laptop.

Open the Selinux Troubleshooter in

Selinux Troublshooter on Lower right , click on Lists All Alerts and you 
will see each alert Selinux put out.
Click on each alert and then click on Troubleshoot.There you'll see each 
rule to apply.
 From the SU command line.
