Title:
  Why do lp and lpr return unauthorized?

Status in cups package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 with latest updates.

  Here are my system's protections for lp and lpr.
  root@steamboy:/usr/bin# ls -l lp
  -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 13540 2011-09-12 10:41 lp
  root@steamboy:/usr/bin# ls -l lpr
  -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 13540 2011-09-12 10:41 lpr

  Only if I sudo can I print something at the command line, else
  I can unauthorized.

  I do have an smb printer with username and password embedded, but I
  believe this problem occurred during one of the 10.04 updates. So my
  question is what would cause lp or lpr to return Unauthorized?

  ics@steamboy:~/icsdev$ lp x.tmp
  lp: Unauthorized
  ics@steamboy:~/icsdev$ lpr x.tmp
  lpr: Unauthorized

  (x.tmp is a real file.)
