It's not in cupsd.conf because it's a printer setting. Try:
lpadmin -p <queue-name> -o auth-info-required=none
This should change the printer setting to not require authentication.
But you will also need to configure the Windows server to not require
authentication to access the printer share. If Windows requires
authentication, then CUPS will still hold the job for authentication
and will change auth-info-required back to username,password.
