Idle - Session setup failed: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED #135

Description

When adding a printer from system-config-printer I always end up with an error of:

Idle - Session setup failed: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED

when I try to print a test page.

While trying to connect from the command line with my credentials and workgroud I can connect and send files to the printer.

smbclient --user="username" --workgroup=SOMEWORKGROUP //hostname.of.printer/thePrinter
Unable to initialize messaging context
Enter SOMEWORKGROUP\username's password: 
Try "help" to get a list of possible commands.
smb: \> print /tmp/snow_rules.ps 
putting file /tmp/snow_rules.ps as snow_rules.ps-12585 (32296.2 kb/s) (average 32296.2 kb/s)
smb: \> quit

So obviously my credentials and the printer work fine.

In the system-config-printer gui I have tried to include the workgroup as part of the printer name as SOMEWORKGROUP/hostname.of.printer/thePrinter or include credentials in the provided box, but still no luck. Also, if I skip entering the credentials while editing the printer, I do NOT get a prompt to provide them later on.

How can I debug why system-config-printer gives me the NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED error?
