Hello Jonathan,
Thank you for submitting this feature/enhancement request for the cups package.
You made this request quite some time ago and Ubuntu has been updated since
then.
Do you think this feature/enhancement is still needed or can we close
this bug report?
Thank you again for helping make Ubuntu better.

Title:
Cannot declare itself as another username with CUPS server
Status in Common Print Dialog:
New
Status in cups package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete

Martin Owens -doctormo-@AskUbuntu suggested I add the username in the
IPP URI directly. The printer address dialog won't let me do that.
Is this a bug or is there some hidden place to put this username or
should it be improved?
