Managing a user's own print jobs is not system administration.
As for masquerading: it depends upon the configuration of CUPS. The
default upstream CUPS configuration allows masquerading trivially and
without a password.

As an addendum to what I wrote just above, I think the menu item should
also be renamed. Less confusing (and also shorter) would be:
System-Administration-Print Jobs
This would have the added advantage of being in alphabetical order
("Print Jobs" would appear just above the "Printing" menu item).
The fix has been placed under "Applications-Accessories-Manage Print
Jobs", but it really should be under "System-Administration-Manage Print
Jobs". That's where you find the "Printing" menu. Putting these two
closely related apps in separate menus is quite confusing. It confused
me enough that I w

I didn't find a "Manage Print Jobs" item anywhere on the system; and
also I think that the main printer control panel should have some button
for the job queue (so all things related to the printers can be reached
from one place). A button under Test and Maintenance sounds good in my
opinion.
How
You should have a 'Manage Print Jobs' main menu entry somewhere,
although it might be hidden by default.
Yes, a 'View Jobs' button (perhaps under 'Tests and Maintenance'?) could
be useful although it exposes a graphical interface for masquerading as
another user when cancelling jobs.
