Apparently the CUPS web management is no longer available to us. I went
to localhost:631/admin and the password dialog came up. I tried several
times using "root" and my password, and was unable to login. I finally
hit cancel, and the message reported:

If I'm reading this right then there's a password built in to prevent
me from accessing the web management on my computer. My next question
is how I can get around this...the password must be bypassable if not
changeable somehow.
