I have a printer that is attached to a network print server, and it is
working in Windows. I want to able to print to it from my Kubuntu boxes,
but I am running into a problem. Looking at the error log for cups makes
me think that it is a permissions issuel. Here is an excerpt from the
error log:

The two things that jumped out at me are all of the "Unauthorized" in
there. But I may also have had a problem with the setup of the print
server. I can ping it just fine, and it is indeed at the IP address I
specified here.
Any idea what I can do next?
Thank you,
