I need an urget Help...

I have uniprint 8.2 and i apply some printers on it and i connect them to a HELD queue, after i finish installing the embedded software on some of them & PS 200 on the others. i publish the package to allow users print using Pharos, but after a while i discover that users who have the old dirver can still printing directly ignoring the held queue and the cost acceptanse message.

But this situation not on all of them, "Some users has try to print directly using the old driver but nothing printed".

How they can print like this?

Any Suggestion...

Correct Answer

The problem was solved..

what i did is from the screenshot on the previous reponse i put the Uniprint Print Server ip address & the result was that no one can print directly to the printer because he/she will be rejected from the printer which will accept only print orders from Pharos Server.

See the reply in context

No one else had this question

It's not clear if you mean they are printing to an old queue that is direct (in which case remove that queue from the server, or change security in Pharos so no one has access), or if you mean they are printing by IP directly to the printer and bypassing the print server. In the latter case, you should set an IP ACL on the printer to not allow this. If you can't set printer security then you're stuck with manual intervention.

Hi Yadin

Thank you for you replay..

yes you are right then are users are printing by ip directly to the printer and bypass the print server. i have Lexmark X940 MFPs & W850 printers. How could I configure the printer to use ACL.
