The issue is fixed in the raring version, we should probably backport the
commit to precise as well:

Title:
Authenticated printing on remote servers broken
Status in “gtk+2.0” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Currently, Gtk2 applications (e.g. Firefox) can't print on printers
that require authentication if they don't connect to the IPP server
via a local unix socket, but over TCP. (the authentication dialog pops
up once, but the client only sends an empty password to the server
after that).
This was fixed in the upstream Gtk3 branch some time ago (commit
f807f7834fea0db7b0b68cd1a0dfa3dbe0985ec2), but still hasn't been
applied to the Gtk2 branch. The upstream bug report is
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=664640
I have confirmed that the Gtk3 patch also fixes the problem for Gtk2;
it would be nice to have the fix included in the Precise Gtk2 packages
as I need this feature to work. It probably also affects other Ubuntu
releases.
System:
Description: Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS
Release: 12.04
libgtk2.0-0 2.24.10-0ubuntu6
