A. A. If you have large print jobs that you would rather run out of hours it is possible to configure usage hours on a print queue:

  1. Select My Computer

  2. Select Printers

  3. Right click on your printer and select properties

  4. Click the Scheduling tab and at the top in the Available section enter a From and a To time, e.g. 18:00 - 08:30

  5. Click OK to save your changes

Jobs submitted to this print queue will now only be printed between the hours specified. If you wanted some jobs to be printed straight away you should define 2 queues, one for overnight, one for all hours.
