>By the way: What means Changed in gtk: status: Unknown → Fix Released ??
As I understand it, it means that Gnome have now included a patch in their 
development version to be able to ask a username and password.

So Gnome will (the day your version of Ubuntu will include this new patch)  ask 
a username and password when
AuthInfoRequired username,password will be in /etc/cups/printers.conf.

Since that bug suggest that it does not really need a password (since it
is able to print without giving one), I doubt it will help much.

I note that GNOME have used the following CUPS documentation to write their 
patch :
http://www.cups.org/doc-1.4/api-cups.html#PASSWORDS_AND_AUTHENTICATION
