I've never done this, so I'm just throwing out ideas for you to consider. You are connecting to alfred in order to print. If you set up printers in samba you have to set whether the driver is going to be local or remote - how do you do that in the cups setup? The other thing that comes to mind is that because it is attached to alfred, you definitely have to authenticate there. You'd need either matching username and password or user-mapping, I would have thought. Hope it starts off some useful train o thought.
