Description Lee Loncosky 2013-06-26 19:40:16 UTC 
When using the KDE Printer Control Module for my Oki c330dn I am asked for the root password two times as described below. 

1) The module asks for root password when first opened.
2) The module asks for root password after selecting -- Configure >> Printer Options >> Change any setting on the right and click on the Apply button.

While not a functional bug it seems like one password should be sufficient for changing some printer settings. 


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open printer module
2. Change printer settings
3. Clip apply.
Actual Results:  
Root password is needed at two places in same printer module.

Expected Results:  
I would really prefer one time to enter password.

They are two different process hence the need for two password prompts,
I may change this (two apps) on future but I don't have clear plans for this.
