Click -> Job#1 is "Held for authentication" Right-click > Authenticate I Give the credentials and check the "Remember password". (attached "print_step1.png") Job is printed Gnome keyring gets a "Network password" entry "domain\[email protected] (smb)" Step #2 : print from Firefox A dialog opens ans ask for authentication "Authentication is required to print document "Title" on printer printername. I Give the credentials and check the "Remember password". (attached "print_step2.png") Job is printed Gnome keyring gets a second "Password or secret" entry "ipp://localhost:631/printers/printername" Step #3 and following : print from Firefox No dialog comes to the user Job is printed Gnome keyring has no more entries than the 2 said before. To me this is the acceptable behaviour. Ideal would even be to have step #1 asking interactively for credentials, step #2 skipped so that we get immediately step #3. But this is outside the scope of this bug report I think. Thanks!
