Yes.  I see the same behavior from gedit and from anything which uses
the default gnome print dialog.  I do not get this behavior from open
office though.  (I think its because open office uses a different print
managing method.)

Actually I was able to get around the problem by hardcoding my username
and password into the DeviceURI field in printers.conf.  Its not a great
solution since my password is written in plaintext,  but it serves as  a
workaround.

As I side note, I had some success using AuthInfoRequired none in
printer.conf.  This stopped the print dialog from asking for
authorization info, but got reset by CUPS whenever I restart the
computer.
