Practical Example – Print Management
Problems with print servers, access to printers and print jobs are a constant issue. Reorganization, relocations, function changes and labor turnover ensure constant movement in printer assignments and authorizations. This is your daily challenge. The migration of queues and print servers also involves a great deal of effort.
What if you could get rid of the daily annoying activities associated with printing? Printer setup and management of print permissions and default settings on printers are ideal for delegation to the service desk or the departments themselves. The same goes for managing print jobs. All this without the need for administrative rights to the print server or Active Directory. Of course, it would only be for printers, user accounts and groups that fall under the corresponding responsibility – always traceable and transparent.
You want to have printer permissions, properties, and print jobs managed by the service desk or by department representatives. No administrative rights to the print servers or Active Directory should be required. In addition, you want a significant relief during printer setups and print server migrations during server updates or infrastructure relocations.
ScriptRunner allows the secure delegation of tasks with PowerShell scripts. The execution of the scripts is controlled by guidelines. Customizable scripts for managing print servers, printers, their default settings, print permissions and print jobs are part of our Action Pack for Print Management. Additional functions for selecting servers, printers, users, groups and rights provide for a comfortable application.
You can now safely delegate daily routine printing tasks to authorized third parties. You will be relieved of less demanding tasks. The tasks are completed faster and more efficiently by the service desk and department. You retain full control and transparency.
