Print authorisation Lubuntu 20.04 HP Envy 5540

I can't get the wretched thing to print.

I'm a member of lpadmin I checked and I have execute.

the printer is detected

Printer, properties, access control is set to let me print.

The printer is not shared its just for me, it is set as default and even displays a little heart!

I get repeated requests for a password to authorise printing there isn't one...

Any help appreciated.

Thanks aamcle

What application or whatever you are trying to print from that asks for a password?
