Hi Till,

Thank you for the information. For plug-in printers, when non-root user connects the printer using USB, he/she will be prompted for password.

As you mentioned, when non-root user plugs-in the printer, script checks whether plug-in is already installed or not.
if not installed, hp-systray calls "hp-diagnose_plugin". On clicking "Next" button, this hp-diagnose_plugin tool prompt for password using tools like policykit or gksudo, kdesu, gksu.

 This new feature is not be supported for qt3.(supports only for qt4).

Please let us know more details on this problem.

Thanks & Regards,
Amarnath
