When trying to link to a Windows Vista, 7 or 8 shared printer from Mac OS 10.6 or newer, you may find that the printer gives this error message. Essentially, SMB printing from CUPS (the Mac OS printing system) seems broken – it does not pass along the correct user name and password (even when entered manually).
The solution is quite long winded… Firstly, ensure that the printer is shared on the Windows machine, with a share name with no spaces. (i.e. not “Canon IP 6700D”, but “CanonIP6”)
