Title:
  Cannot run system-config-printer as notmal user after upgrading to
  14.04

Status in “system-config-printer” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Hi,

  I have issues after upgrading from 12.04 to 14.04. I can run

  system-config-printer

  as root but not as a normal user. I get the error

  There was an error during the CUPS operation: 'Bad Request'.

  If I run

  system-config-printer --debug

  I get the following output:

  OpenPrinting: Init ('en_US', 'UTF-8') 1 0
  +<NewPrinterGUI object at 0x7ff964028460 (newprinter+NewPrinterGUI at 0xea5ba0)>
  Connected as user roberto
  +<PrinterPropertiesDialog object at 0x7ff964041dc0   (printerproperties+PrinterPropertiesDialog at 0xf0b3a0)>
  <authconn.Connection instance at 0x7ff964033830>: Operation += obtaining queue details
  Authentication pass: 1
  Authentication: password callback set
  1024: u'Bad Request'

  If I instead run the command with sudo I can access the dialog and set
  the printers, but then the applications that do not run as root cannot
  see the printers set by root.

  The variable

  CUPS_SERVER

  is set and exported both by the .profile in my home directory and in
  /etc/profile. I would also exclude a rights problem as (i) the command
  was workin gbefore the upgrade, and (ii) my user's groups include

  sys adm lp dialout lpadmin admin
