Default Cups , authentication issue

Hello folks

I try to use HP 1018 Laserprinter with Cups and FreeBSD 8.0. I get an error when I start cups webinterface and try to add a printer.

401 Unauthorized
Enter your username and password or the root username and password to access this page. If you are using Kerberos authentication, make sure you have a valid Kerberos ticket.
But there is no box to write password. Same problem when I try it with root.

Probably there is something wrong with cups.conf. But I didnt change anything.

A quick google search revealed this page, where changing AuthType to Basic solved the problem.

I solved it already
Carpetsmoker. Thank you
I installed foo2zjs, got a new cupsd.conf with all default options, (deleted the old cupsd.conf). Copied the firmware to usb port and setup the printer in cups webinterface. Now it works with firefox. . But have problems to print graphics.
