Dear list
I am trying to set a page limitation on F17 to a printer installed on a
server with manu system users.

At the begginig, things looks easy. Si I tryed this command

 /usr/sbin/lpadmin -p ML-4550-Series -o job-quota-period=604800     -o
job-page-limit=2
and I got this in   /etc/cups/printers.conf


<Printer ML-4550-Series>
UUID urn:uuid:5de5f6d4-255c-3e22-4f2f-77dd7d18eff1
Info ML-4550-Series
MakeModel Samsung ML-4600 - CUPS+Gutenprint v5.2.9 Simplified
DeviceURI usb://Samsung/ML-4550%20Series?serial=4821B1AB400658F
State Idle
StateTime 1356611816
Type 4116
Accepting Yes
Shared Yes
JobSheets none none
QuotaPeriod 604800
PageLimit 2
KLimit 0
OpPolicy default
ErrorPolicy stop-printer
</Printer>
(I restarted cups)
However, when I log as a normal user and print a file with many pages
(more than 2) , the print succeed ( the page limit option is set correctly).
Do you have an experience with this?

regards
Adel
