- Enabling the Printer Management feature
After assigning printers to target devices, the Printer Management feature must be enabled before any printers on the target device can be removed. Until Printer Management is enabled, all printers installed on the target device are available to the target device. Once the feature is enabled, any changes to target devices printer settings (enable/disable; default) become available the next time the target device boots from the vDisk.
If the Printer Management feature is disabled and a target device boots from a vDisk that has printers installed on it, that target device has access to all printers on that vDisk. If the Printer Management feature is enabled and the target device boots from that same vDisk, that target device can only access those printers that are enabled for that target device.
You can also choose from the following methods to enable or disable the Printer Management feature using right-click menus:
Printers Group
In the Tree, under Provisioning Servers, expand a Provisioning Server, then expand the vDisk for which you want to disable Printer Management. Right-click on the Printers folder for that vDisk, then select the Disable Printer Management option.
Virtual Disk
In the Tree, under Provisioning Servers, right click on the vDisk for which you want to disable Printer Management, then select the Disable Printer Management option.
