Benjamin,

CUPS doesn't add the IP address to the username on its own.  What version of CUPS, what OS/Linux distribution, and how is the printer configured?

So that looks like: "root (10.3.11.3)". And that IP is the problem. We want to use FollowMe-Printing and the user have to authenticates himself on the printer. But when cups sends not only the username, the user cant authenticates himself. How can i remove the ip?
