[cups] Provide password for CLI tools

Hi,

I require to run CLI tools like lpadmin or cupsaccept in "batch mode". If a
server requires authentication, an interactive promt appears that asks for
the password. Is there any way to pass the password to these tools or
another authentication type which allows them to run non-interactive?


Thanks and regards,

Stephan
