I am using the following command to create users as part of the support group I created and am using in my cupsd.conf file. Everything works on the webgui the way I want so I am confident that is setup correctly. This is the syntax: /usr/bin/lppasswd -a -g support <username>. Both OS users that I have used to make changes are not the "Root" user but they both have lp as part of there groups. What happens is as follows. User1 will add user via lppasswd command above. That in turn changes the /etc/cups/passwd.md5 file ownership from root:lp to user1:lp. Then if I try and add a a user via lppasswd with user2 I overwrite the file and it moves what was in the file before to /etc/cups/passwd.old and now the ownership on the passswd.md5 file is user2:lp. Thoughts??? I have went through the cups documentation and have not found anything that is helpful.

-l
This option is passed to cupsd when it is run from launchd(8).
