Hello, All!

Some time ago, after updating the CUPS, printers using foo2zjs stopped working. The foo2zjs port is very outdated. Can anyone update this port?

If someone updates the port, I can test it with the printer HP 1018.

I'm sorry. It's my mistake. The package foo2zjs is still working.

The fact is that I am using a network printer. Communication with the printer goes through cups-smb-backend. And before, I used the link without a username and password, because the printer is accessible to everyone. Now I found that it is necessary to specify the login and password in the link. That is, the link must necessarily look like this:

smb://login:password@server/printer

At least it worked for me.
