[Wylug-help] Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron & Network Printing

Morning All,

Has anyone tried setting up Network printing on the Ubuntu Hardy?  I 
have my Samsung ML1510 hooked up to an Edimax 3205uw printserver.  The 
Connection is wired ethernet.  Under the previous (Gutsy) version of 
Ubuntu I could print, but after the job had finished I needed to delete 
it from the printer queue.  After a clean install of Hardy i have re-set 
up the printers using IPP and configuring them through the CUPS web 
interface (localhost:631).  I have used Firestarter to configure the 
firewall to allow incoming traffic from the print server.

The initial test print works, but then I can send no further prints to 
the printer.  Cancelling the print jobs does not help, and the CUPS web 
screen shows the status as "waiting for print job to complete".  Looking 
at /var/log/cups/error_log shows:

E [02/Jun/2008:08:22:12 +0100] [CGI] Unable to send 46 bytes to

E [09/Jun/2008:08:20:02 +0100] CUPS-Add-Modify-Printer: Unauthorized

So I assume I have some sort of permissions issue.  Can anyone suggest 
where the problem might be?

Thanks for your help again
