Note: If you change the name of a print queue that has already been shared, print jobs sent
by users to the old queue name will not be printed. Users will need to set up their computers
again to use the queue with its new name.

5

Select the protocols used for printing by your client computers.

If you select “Windows printing (SMB),” make sure Windows services are running.

See “Starting Windows Services” on page 240.

6

If you want to add the queue to a shared Open Directory domain, choose a shared domain
from the pop-up menu, then enter the user name and password for the administrator of the
server on which the domain resides.

This allows users of Mac OS X computers configured to access the domain to print to the
queue by choosing it from the Directory Services printer list in Print Center (rather than
having to manually enter the LPR print host and queue name).

Note: After sharing a print queue in an Open Directory domain, do not try to add the queue
from the Directory Services list to your server.

7

Choose the default job priority for new print jobs in this queue.

8

Select Hold to postpone printing all new jobs that arrive in the queue. Specify a time of day
to print the jobs, or choose to postpone printing indefinitely.

9

Select “Enforce print quotas” if you want to enforce the user print quotas for the printer.

Renaming a Print Queue

When you add a printer in Print Center, the default name of the queue created for it is the
same as the printer name.

Note: If you change the name of a print queue that has already been shared, print jobs sent
by users to the old queue name will not be printed. Users will need to set up their computers
again to use the queue with its new name.

To rename a print queue:

1

In Server Settings, click the File & Print tab.

2

Click Print and choose Show Print Monitor.

3

Select the print queue you want to rename and click Edit.

4

Enter a new name in the Queue Name field.

Entering a queue name does not change the Print Center queue name.
