Just to add to the authentication issue: On Ubuntu 12.04 I am experiencing this problem now.
I have a Kodak Hero 5.1 with the driver in synaptic as well as Launchpad. Was working fine but since various updates I can no longer connect via wireless on this home printer. I can connect easily via USB port. Having spent all day with this, there has got to be a simpler way to do this, too many perameters, too confusing. It's supposed to just work. I have yet to check if my two Mint boxes can still print wirless. Don't want to know at the moment.
