Hi,

I confim same behaviour running kubuntu 13.10, clean install.
I was not able to log in to cups via http://localhost:631
I was not able to get any working credentials. I tried lppasswd -a user, lppasswd -a root, etc. None worked.

I was finally able to do the workaround using system-preferences->select printer-> PDF ->select driver,
then providing the suggested /usr/share/ppd/cups-pdf/CUPS-PDF.ppd file.

Workaround fixes this.
