Description:
It appears that CUPS is built without kerberos support. At least, I cannot print via the CUPS server at my University, which requires authentication via kerberos.
This can be fixed by adding "--enable-gssapi" to the "configure" command in the PKGBUILD (taken from the Debian package).

Package version: cups 1:2.4.1-1
This task depends upon

configure --help gives:

--enable-gssapi enable (deprecated) GSSAPI/Kerberos support

It will be replaced by OAuth in 2.5.x release. I'm not for adding a deprecated feature. Please do a custom build yourself.

Automatic use of kerberos when the headers were present was removed in [1] when kerberos became deprecated.
Edit:
Too slow.
