Conﬁguring Logical Printers for Defaulting and Restriction

Figure 6-7 Using Logical Printers to Restrict Printer Capabilities

You use the values for the logical printer

xxx-

supported attributes, such

as maximum-copies-supported and sides-supported, to restrict the

availability of capabilities and features. When a user submits a job, the

spooler validates the values of the job and document attributes against

the values of the logical printer

xxx-

supported attributes. If a job or

document attribute has a speciﬁc, non-blank value, the corresponding

logical printer attribute, if it has a value or values, must support the job

or document attribute value. Discrete values must match and numeric

values must satisfy some type of limit or range. By default, none of the

logical printer

xxx-

supported attributes have values, which means that

no restrictions apply. Because many job and document attributes do not
