A. A. The same way as files have security information, so do printers, and you need to set which users can perform actions on each network printer

  1. Logon as an Administrator

  2. Double click "My Computer" and then select printers

  3. Right click on the printer whose permissions you wish to change and select properties

  4. Click the security tag and select permissions

  5. You can now add users/groups and grant them the appropriate privilege

  6. Click OK when finished
