Looks like I will choose this bug as the main one.
Yeah, just also added bug #305030 as duplicate of this one.

From bug #314543, we learned that an other possible symptom of this bug is:
After creating network printer, first job is printed Ok, but any job sent after is rejected.
When trying to print from text editor the following message appears:
ERROR PRINTING, Too many failed attempts

We also just learned that the new (improved) workaround is working:
"Thanks Paul,
I have checked the /etc/cups/printers.conf, and after reading bug #283811, I have changed the line to:
AuthInfoRequired none
and it is working now for Eclipse and Firefox; therefore I can confirm that is the same bug, but with another symptom."

So it looks that just this line is enough. The "auth-info-supported none" seems not needed.
