I've narrowed down the issue some more.  It appears to be an issue with
deciding which username to use for authenticating.

I did the following on Gutsy and Hardy:
-Installed wireshark
-Scanned for SMB protocol
-Looked at authentication tries
-Noted usernames.

Results:
-Gutsy authenticated once with the username I supplied within the dialog box.
-Hardy tries to authenticate several times under various usernames, none of 
which I have specified.
  -lp
  -<my local login>
  -anonymous

My /etc/cups/printers.conf is identical for each of the machines.  I'm
gonna look into this more after class today, as this issue is a sticking
point for most of the people I know who run Ubuntu.
