3-1 Levels of access and control
To prepare for printing at your site, you must do some initial GA-1120 configuration,
or Setup, to specify the network environment and the kind of printing you will do.
Before you perform Setup, you must decide the levels of access you will implement for
your site. Administrators and operators must also understand how GA-1120 system
software is structured in order to configure and use the GA-1120 system correctly.
Levels of access and control
When you configure the GA-1120 during Setup, you (as system administrator)
implement a particular level of control by enabling or not enabling print connections,
passwords, and access to WebTools. The level of control you implement can range
from minimum to moderate to maximum—or none at all.
• Minimum control might be appropriate for a small site where anyone on the local
network can control all printing and GA-1120 functions. Although there may be an
administrator or operator charged with certain duties, all users have equal access to
the system and job management tools.
• Maximum control might be appropriate for a high-volume printing environment
where an administrator or operator controls the job flow and all printing; jobs sent
by users are spooled (stored) to the GA-1120 disk until the operator decides it is
time to print them. In addition, only the administrator and operator have access to
job management tools. This is the recommended level of control.
N OTE : The term “job management tools” is used in this manual to refer to
Command WorkStation, Fiery Spooler, and Fiery WebSpooler.
GA-1120 print connections
The GA-1120 supports three print connections: Hold queue, Print queue, and Direct
connection. These print connections can be enabled, or “published,” to users on the
network when you configure Printer Setup. All published connections are constantly
checked for the presence of jobs. The Print queue and Direct connection give remote
users more direct access to the GA-1120 than the Hold queue. Therefore, do not
publish the Print queue and the Direct connection in environments where maximum
control is desired.
