(Added in duplicate #152504)
---
I can confirm this behavior in Hardy 8.04.1 with all updates, on 9 different 
servers that I administrate.

I can confirm the workaround of adding the user to the "lpadmin" group
to bypass the prompt for a password and add a printer, whereas before it
would continually ask for a password, even when entering it correctly.

This issue probably affects anyone trying to add a printer that isn't
part of the "lpadmin" group. Yikes.
