Not at all - you are asked separately for the Samba username and
password (in the form).  That is specifically why we have the
username and password in the export form - we are well aware that
the Samba username and password may be different from the system/CUPS
username and password.  If you require additional authentication for
CUPS itself, you will get the usual pop-up password dialog in your
browser.
