I want to restrict access to certain printers so that print jobs are not sent to the wrong printer - these kids are sending print jobs all over the place! For example if they are working in room 22 say, I would like the machines there to only see the printer in that room. Setting access on a per user basis is realy out of the question when there are nearly 900 of them. can anyone point me in the right direction? regards garry
