Device Settings
Lock Settings
An administrator can specify settings at the tab or feature level in the driver, and
then lock them (so that the settings are applied to all print jobs, and changes are
restricted). The settings are locked in the
Device Settings
>
Administrator
Settings
>
Lock Settings
dialog box. For example, you can always set a
printing system to print duplex. This saves paper, resulting in cost savings and
ecological benefits.
Locking a setting also locks the feature where it appears in other tabs. For
example, selecting
Lock Multiple pages per sheet
selects and locks that
feature in the
Quick Print
and
Layout
tabs.
The administrator can also set a password that is required to temporarily unlock
a feature.
In a client/server environment, this feature is unavailable to a client logged in as
a restricted user.
Lock Settings Options
The
Lock Settings
dialog box lists the following driver settings that can be
locked so that the settings are applied to all print jobs, and changes are
restricted:
Black & White mode
This option disables all color settings in the driver’s
Quick Print
,
Basic
, and
Imaging
tab and prints all jobs with black toner only.
Lock EcoPrint
This option locks the current
EcoPrint
setting.
Lock Duplex
This option locks the current
Duplex
setting.
Flip on long edge
and
Flip on
short edge
options are not locked. Clicking the icon in the
Quick Print
tab,
or the selection in the
Basic
tab, switches between the flip options.
Lock Multiple pages per sheet
This option locks the current
Multiple pages per sheet
setting. The
Pages
per sheet
option is not locked.
Lock Profile with Application
This option can help standardize print jobs. It sets all printing from each
installed application to use the same driver settings as defined in a profile.
The administrator must first make selections in the
Profiles
and
Application
Based Profile
dialog boxes. The administrator can then ensure that all print
jobs use those settings by locking this feature. Selecting
Lock Profile with
Application
also prevents any user changes in the
Application Based
Profile
dialog box.
Lock Job tab
If the
Job
tab is among the available driver tabs, the administrator must first
make selections there for job name and storage. The administrator can then
ensure that all print jobs use those settings by locking this feature. Selecting
Lock Job tab
also prevents any user changes in the
Job
tab.
Lock Security Settings
If the
Security Watermark
plug-in is installed, the administrator must first
make selections for the
Security Watermark
in the
Advanced
tab. The
administrator can then ensure that a security watermark is printed on all jobs
by locking this feature. Selecting
Lock Security Settings
also prevents any
user changes in the
Security Watermark
dialog box.
