Thanks Neil, the authentication demand seemed to appear after an Ubuntu update. Mine is not a networked printer, I have, again, searched the internet for help, all seems to relate to network printers. Nothing found in cups help, so I am still trying to remove the authentication requirement which appears after requesting any document print request.

Sorry, I've just realised I didn't make it clear that these settings might apply locally too.
Worth a try anyway.
