 #     current directive is the continuation of the previous one. Use with
 #     care and only when you need it.

+#
+# IMPORTANT : While printing, PyKota needs to retrieve some values from
+# the CUPS server it's installed on by doing unauthenticated requests
+# of the form http://localhost:631. Recent releases of CUPS have added 
+# the possibility to hide some values like user's name for example for 
+# privacy reasons, and this makes PyKota fail. Please ensure that the
+# cupsd.conf file contains the following directives :
+#  
+#     JobPrivateAccess all
+#     JobPrivateValues none
+#
+# This will ensure that PyKota can retrieve all the print job attributes it 
+# needs to correctly function.
