Managing Printing Preferences
Use Printing preferences to create printer lists and manage access to printers. The table
below describes what settings on each Printing pane can do.
Making Printers Available to Users
To give users access to printers, you first need to set up a printer list. Then, you can
allow specific users or groups to use printers in that list. You can also make printers
available to computers. A user’s final list of printers is a combination of printers
available to the user, the group selected at login, and the computer being used.
To create a printer list for users:
1 In Workgroup Manager, click Preferences.
2 Make sure the right directory is selected and that you are authenticated for it.
To switch directories, click the small globe above the accounts list. If you are not
authenticated, click the lock.
3 Select one or more users, groups, or computer lists.
4 Click Printing.
5 Set the management setting to Always. This setting applies to all Printing preference
options.
6 Click Printer List.
7 The Available Printers list is created from the list of available network printers in Printer
Setup Utility.
Select a printer in the Available Printers list, then click “Add to List” to make that printer
available in the user’s printer list.
If the printer you want doesn’t appear in the Available Printers list, click Open Printer
Setup and add the printer to Printer Setup Utility’s printer list.
8 Click Apply Now.
