I'm not sure what you mean.
I seem to get a whole lot of things I could change on this page,
eg add printer, manager printer, etc.
I'm asked for my CUPS login name and password when I try to do anything,
which I recall don't ever giving.
However, it seems to allow me to proceed with my own name and password,
which seems bizarre.

CUPS is a marvelous system when it is working,
but it is perversely difficult to set up.
It must have been designed by an alien.
