[New: openFATE 313416] Provide alternate printjob username

Description:
Would like to see a way in Samba to provide an alternate printjob username when
guest printing.

Don't know if I selected the right "product" for this request

Test Case:
I believe if you were to join a SLES box to an AD domain, then add the user for
the server, as described above, the issue could be easily duplicated. I am
working on that now.

Use Case:
In this particular instance the customer was authenticating to the server, or
appeared to be, as a particular user. Whenever he printed, however, the banner
page would come out as being printed by guest. Development found that the
windows workstation had a user configured for this server (SERVERNAME/guest).
net use commands didn't override this user (windows bug). In this case the "use
default domain = yes" setting was being used, so the user's servername
(SERVERNAME) would be stripped off, leaving us a username of guest--which would
then login.
