Public bug reported:

Our users authenticate via Active Directory to login to Ubuntu 12.04
VMs/desktops.  We even use libpam-mount to automatically mount their
windows home directories.

However, when we set up printers via CUPS that connect to secured
printers over samba on a windows server, whenever a user prints any job,
they have to authenticate, even if they already have done so before.
This happens on *every* document they print.  Checking the Remember
credentials checkbox has no effect.

Ideally, we would like CUPS to work the same way as libpam-mount - that
is to automatically pass AD credentials from winbind/krb to the print
server rather than ask.
