Hi Samuel,
AuthInfoRequired tells CUPS that the __remote__ printer needs
authentication. When setting AuthInfoRequired, CUPS cannot check the
username and password. It simply includes them in the print options when
sending a job to the printer. From a quick glance at the gtk sources, it
does not seem to pull those credentials from gnome-keyring, which is why
it prompts your users every time for their password.
However, from your report it seems like you want authentication to the
local CUPS instance, is this correct? Have you set up any other
authentication with CUPS except AuthInfoRequired?
