11.1.7 Print Servers

Terms in this set (10)

Windows printing uses the concept of a logical printer.
Which of the following are the components of a logical printer? (Select three.)
Printer driver
Print spooler
Print device

When you create a printer on a Windows print server, you are creating a logical entity that consists of the following components:
Print device--the physical device connected to the print server where print output occurs.
Print driver--the software that allows the logical printer to communicate with the print device.
Print spooler--the portion of the hard drive where print jobs are stored before going to the print device.
Printer role services that can be configured on a print server are print server, LPD service, Internet printer, and distributed scan server. A printer port is the means by which a print device connects to a print server (parallel port, USB, or network interface). A print server is the computer that sends the print job to the physical device. A printed document is the physical print output from the print device.
You are the network administrator for eastsim.com. The network consists of a single domain. All of the servers run Windows server.
The company has one main office. The main office has 200 Windows client computers, 10 Linux workstations, and 20 Windows servers. The Linux workstations do not have a graphical user interface. There is one print server named PS1.
Which printer role service must you install on PS1 to provide printing services to the Linux workstations?
Line Printer Daemon (LPD)

You should install the Line Printer Daemon (LPD) services role on PS1 to give your Linux users access to the print server on your network.
Unix printers are not compatible with Microsoft print services. In order to support Unix clients, you need to install the Line Printer Daemon (LPD) role service, which is the same service that would run on a Unix print server.
The Internet Printing role service is not device specific, but requires extra configuration and the use of a web browser on the client side. Neither the Linux Printer (LP) nor the UNIX Printer Daemon (UPD) are valid options.
You have connected a print device to the Srv11 server and created a printer for it. You have shared the printer as Printer1 and granted the Everyone group permission to print to it.
A third-party technician is visiting your company today to clean the company's printers. You check the print queue and find numerous jobs in the queue. An identical print device is attached to Srv5. The printer on Srv5 is shared as Printer2.
You want to let the technician clean the printer attached to Srv11 while allowing the print jobs in queue to print.
What should you do?
Add a new local port and configure Printer1 to print to it.

To redirect print jobs in a queue to another print device, modify the printer properties to send the print jobs to a different device. On the Ports tab of your printer's properties, click Add Port and add a new local port using the printer's UNC path as the name (\\Srv5\Printer2). Then select the new port as the port to which Printer1 prints. Existing jobs in the queue will be redirected to the other printer.
Creating a new printer would mean that users would have to create a new printer on their workstations and would also mean that existing documents in the Printer1 queue would be redirected to the new printer. Use printer pooling when you have multiple identical printers. After enabling printer pooling, you would need to select an additional port. However, adding a new port would split existing jobs between the old printer and the new printer. You would have to deselect the existing port to prevent jobs from being sent to the existing print device.
You want to manage printing to a network printer on your local subnet. The printer is connected directly to the network and uses an IP address of 192.168.1.14. Your management server is Srv1.
What should you do?
Open the Print Management console on Srv1 and create a new TCP/IP printer using the 192.168.1.14 IP address. Select the appropriate printer driver according to the make and model of the printer.
You have connected a print device to the Srv2 server and created a printer for it. You have shared the printer as Printer1 and published it to Active Directory.
During the hours of 11:00 am to 2:00 pm, you want to restrict access to the print device to members of the Help Desk Reports group. No other users should be able to print to your print device during those hours. During all other hours, all users in the company should have equal access to the print device.
What should you do?
Create a second printer for your print device and name it Printer2. Keep the default configuration for Printer1, but configure Printer1's availability to 2:00 pm to 11:00 am. For Printer2, remove permissions for the Everyone group and grant the print permission to the Help Desk Reports group.
You have connected a print device to Srv4 and created a printer for it. You have shared the printer as Printer1 and published it to Active Directory.
You assign the allow print permission for the printer to the Help Desk Technicians domain local group. However, you discover that users who are not members of the Help Desk technicians group can print to the printer.
You want only members of the Help Desk Technicians group to print to Printer1.
What should you do?
Remove the Everyone group from the printer's access control list.
You have connected a print device to the Srv9 server and created a printer for it. You have shared the printer as Printer1 and published it to Active Directory.
You are leaving on vacation and want to let Chad pause, restart, and delete print jobs on the printer while you are gone. Chad should not be allowed to delete the printer or change its properties. Chad is a member of the Help Desk Technicians domain local group. Currently, the Everyone group has the allow print permission to the printer.
What should you do?
Assign Chad the allow manage documents permission to the printer.
You have a Windows server named Print1 that is the print server for five shared printers. You have configured a printer object for each printer and shared each printer.
Your network has several hundred users. You would like users to be able to search for printers based on capabilities such as color, duplex, and other features, and to be able to select the printer that is appropriate for a specific task.
What should you do?
Right-click each printer and choose List in Directory.
You have a Windows server named Print1 that is the print server for five shared printers. You have configured a printer object for each printer and shared each printer.
Users start complaining that one of the printers, the FastPrint 6000, is missing parts of graphics when it prints. You check the manufacturer's website and find an updated printer driver that is supposed to fix the problem.
You need to update each client computer with the new driver. You need to do so as quickly as possible with the least amount of effort.
What should you do?
On the server, update the printer object with the new driver.
You manage a Windows server that has an attached printer that is used by the Sales department. The sales manager has asked you to restrict access to the printer as follows:
Sally needs to connect to a printer, print documents, and pause and resume her own print jobs.
Damien needs to pause and resume documents for all users, but does not need to change printer properties.
You want to assign the most restrictive permissions that meet the sales manager's requirements. What should you do? (Choose two. Each choice is part of the correct solution.)
Assign Sally the print permission.

Assign Damien the manage documents permission.
