I can't help, but want to say I have the same problem.

I run system-config-printer on the F11 system after using "su -" to get root
access. (Clean install of F11)
I can go all the way through selecting the proper printer driver and then I
get the "unauthorized" error.

Also, and per haps related?) is I can not log on as root on that machine. I
can use "su -" to get root access, but I can not log on as root. I get an
error saying unable to authorize...
