To answer Derg question (asked on bug #305030), no there is no news on this bug.
It would be written here if it were any.
You should expect this bug to be fixed in next version, Karmic Koala.

But you sure could try the workaround I presented, to change the following line in /etc/cups/printers.conf:
AuthInfoRequired username,password
to become:
AuthInfoRequired none

I guess that it is now 'AuthInfoRequired' and not 'auth-info-required' like it seems to have been originally.
