FWIW, date/time and network require no authentication (including
system-wide things like NTP). Managing printers requires unlock, but
printing, installing a new local printer or connecting to mdns / cups
browsing network printers does not.
I think, last time I did this I had to perform several actions as root
- one was firewall related, I also had to install some packages that
weren't available by default and configure / discover the network
printer. Maybe I will take notes next time and enter a bug, although
to be honest I would not expect the sophistication of elegant UI that
Torvalds seems to, from Fedora (I have entered bugs on similar niggles
in audio config, network manager, gdm etc.).
