Status Redirects to Blank Pages in Web Admin Tool

This is a fairly easy bug to replicate. I can log in with the 'root' user on the 'Administration' tab.
Through the documentation, I have created a separate password for 'root', though this password is not taken for the 'Administration' tab. When I try to stop a printer, I am asked for credentials. Valid credentials are accepted (eventually), though page is redirected to a blank status page. If I cancel-out, obviously I face a 401 error.
Though there is no erroneous condition reported, the printer never reaches a stopped state.
