Title:
  Printer configuration fails but should prompt for sudo password

Status in system-config-printer package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: system-config-printer

  Problem: When a user tries to configure a network printer in the menu
  System->Administration->Printing it fails. User is allowed to
  configure printers. The error message that appears is: There was an
  error during the CUPS operation: 'client-error-bad-request'.

  Expected: Would be to prompt for administration (sudo) password to
  manage a printer unmanageable for the user, see below.

  Solution: When doing 'sudo system-config-printer' the same printer
  adds without problem with the same steps taken as for user.

  Versions:
  Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid 2.6.32-25-generic
  system-config-printer 1.2.0+20100408-0ubuntu5.2
