** Summary changed: - Samba shared printer keeps prompting clients for username/password + Network shared printer keeps prompting clients for username/password
** Description changed: This is a regression from Utopic, and Trusty. With a USB attached printer, when going through the New Printer dialogue in Ubuntu, it prompts for a username and password, despite the guest ok = yes configuration being performed for both [printers] and [print$]. With Windows 8.1 it won't even see the printer when attempting to connect with an IP address. The printer prints locally successfully, and the firewall is off. + + WORKAROUND: Install Samba.
