Print Service 329
Selecting a Default Print Queue
Specifying a default print queue simplifies setup for printing from client computers to LPR
print queues. Users can choose to print to the default queue rather than having to enter the
IP address of a specific queue.
To select a default print queue:
1 In Server Settings, click the File & Print tab.
2 Click Print and choose Configure Print Service.
3 Choose the queue you want to make the default queue from the “Default Queue for LPR”
pop-up menu.
Deleting a Print Queue
When you delete a print queue, any jobs in the queue that are waiting to print are also
deleted.
Note: If a job is printing, it is canceled immediately. To avoid abruptly canceling users’
print jobs, you can turn off sharing a queue until all jobs have finished printing and then
delete the queue.
To delete 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 delete and click Delete.
Managing Print Jobs
This section tells you how to perform day-to-day management of print jobs.
Monitoring a Print Job
You monitor individual print jobs using the Queue Monitor window of Server Settings.
To monitor a print job:
1 In Server Settings, click the File & Print tab.
2 Click Print and choose Show Print Monitor.
3 Select the queue and click Show Queue Monitor.
