We have a couple of printers attached to the wife's computer (a Brother 
MFC-3820CN over USB and a HP 1220C).  I use printer manager to create an entry 
per the faq.  Initially I got nothing.  But then after deleting the printer, 
messing around a bit, recreating the queue, I had lp fail on me and lpstat tell 
me:

$ lpstat -a

$

The file shares on my wife's machine seem to need a username/password.  Is that 
an issue for the printer shares?  If so what magic do I wave at the windows 
machine to get it to do the right thing?
