Where to find user authentication on printer driver?

I had already installed a printer drive in iMac but could not print due to user authentication.

I had been trying to find the user authentication on the konica minolta printer driver but couldn't. I tried everything by googling and asking around and all seem don't know how to add user authentication. It is very frustrating that I couldn't print anything and I had to ask my colleagues to help print for me.

Even the printer company kept sharing the link - here but it is for macos catalina.

Please help, thank you.

I'm having the same issue, but I don't know why authentication is being required. I never set anything like that up for my printer and this just started. Is this something new in Sonoma?

In the cases I know where printer authentication is required, it works like this: you start a print job, then if check list of jobs, it will appear there as “Hold for Authentication”.. Click the little hook icon and enter your credentials, checking the appropriate box to store them in your keychain. Subsequent prints will then authenticate automatically using your keychain.
