Printers

Printers are maintained by system administrators. Only a system administrator can add, delete, update, copy, or export a printer. By default, only system administrators can see printers in a list and therefore, only a system administrator can view the properties of a printer or create a summary. However, it is almost always necessary for other users to have access to printers. For this reason, a user or group can be given access to a particular printer. A printer's access list is maintained on the Permissions page under printers, by using the administrative client. Access to a printer can be given to all users and groups defined to the system, individual groups, and individual users.

Limiting access to printers provides the ability to control which printers can be used to print archived documents by Content Manager OnDemand users. For example, suppose that there is a printer in the customer service department. Only people in the customer service department should be permitted to print on the printer. You can accomplish this by creating a Content Manager OnDemand group that contains only the department members and giving only that group access to the printer.
