Title:
  CUPS fails to request authentication when printing over IPP w/ TLS

Status in “cups” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “cups” source package in Oneiric:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  We have a CUPS server configured to allow printing over IPP w/ TLS.
  Printing requires the user to authenticate using basic authentication.

  When printers are set up in Ubuntu 11.04 and lower, the user is
  prompted to enter their username and password when they attempt to
  print.

  However, on upgrading to 11.04 (or doing a fresh install), the user no
  longer gets a prompt and the job does not go through.

  The error logs show some TLS errors, however printing proceeds
  normally if authentication is removed.

  Here is a relevant chunk from the error_log on the server (running
  1.4.3, but this was tested and duplicated on an ubuntu 11.10 server):
