Today for the first time, an unidentified neighbour managed to print off 6 pages on my printer.  Does anyone know how I can prevent this in future.  I am on intant ink so dont want my allowance being used up by unknowns...

Increase the strength of your wi-fi password. If someone unknown printed something it came wirelessly trough your wi-fi.

Since posting, managed to indentify who it was, it was my next door neighbour who confirmed that he connected via his phone on bluetooth.  Have since turned bluetooth off on the printer.   My broadband network is secure.
