Introduction to administering Xprint V7.0 Xprint V7.0 architecture
common printers, and with one generic PCL which in most cases also allows
printing on unknown printers. A list of the PCLs supported by Xprint V7.0 is
provided in the Reference Manual.
As an administrator you can define, modify and delete PCLs.
● Permission lists (-prm)
With permission lists, you can define the following privileges under Xprint
V7.0:
– Which users may/may not use a printer, a printer group or a gateway.
– Which administrators may assign a new supervisor to a specific server.
– Which users may/may not use a specific form.
– Which forms may/may not be used on a specific printer.
There are two types of permission list: "allowed lists" and "denied lists".
An allowed list is used to specify which users or forms are allowed to use the
relevant object, while the denied list defines which users or forms are not
allowed to use a specific object. The allowed list of a printer, for example,
restricts use of the printer to the users contained in the list. The denied list
of a printer defines that the printer can be accessed by all users except for
those contained in the list.
The administrator of a specific object (printer, server, form) can
always access the object, irrespective of the contents of the
associated permission list.
Basically, permission lists for objects are handled as follows: if there is an
entry in the allowed list, the denied list is ignored; if the allowed list is empty,
the denied list applies. If both lists are empty, access to the object is
unrestricted.
● Print jobs (-job)
Print jobs are submitted by users and, as described in the previous section,
can be modified. They are administered by the servers responsible for the
respective print queues. Print jobs are not part of the Xprint V7.0 database
like printers, servers etc., but they are stored in the server spoolin directory.
In addition to the normal modification options, as an administrator you can
redirect all print jobs for a printer to another printer.
● Printers (-dev)
Xprint V7.0 can use printers of many different types.
