Require Password for Printing to Networked Printer?

Hi All,
I have a HP Color LaserJet 3600n on my network of 4 Airport Extreme Gigabit Routers. It is both connected by USB to the router AND CAT6 Ethernet to the router for a direct network connection. I have 5 computers on the network and i would like to password protect the printing to this printer. We also have an HP LaserJet 4100 connected by USB only. That is the regular printer that everyone should print to but if they need color they need to request permission. Is there a way to be asked for a password every time they want to print to the color? It doesn't matter if it is printing through network IP or Bonjour USB.
Thanks
- Harris

It may be possible. On your computer's browser enter the following URL: http://localhost:631/. This should open the CUPS administration page. There is a set of tabs near the top of the page. Click on the tab labeled Administration. You should now see a list of options you can check. You should see one labeled "Use Kerberos authentication (FAQ). Click on the FAQ link which will open a help page on configuring and using Kerberos authentication with CUPS. From here you are on your own because I know nothing about this nor if it will provide the type of password control for which you are looking.

  • How do I set up my HP psc2175xi all in one printer for wireless printing or network printing?

    How do I set up my HP psc2175xi all in one printer for wireless printing or network printing?
    I am changing the set up of my home computer to add another computer.
    I would like to go wireless from my computers to the hub and wired from the hub to my
    printer. I do not think this printer can do that since it does not have the ports to connect to a router hub, I think.
    I am rather new to this way of setting up, so any help would be nice.

    You could get a wireless router that supports USB printers, but these only support printing, not scanning.  You could just go buy a new wireless printer since your printer is pretty old, anyway.

    If I were you I would try to troubleshoot your connection with itunes ON the system. But for starters it is very unlikely one program like itunes blocks your connection, so I would try to disable your antivirus/firewall during download and reinstall of itunes. May be your firewalll kicks in some panic mode. Judging by your name you have very strong firewall

I have had too much problems since i updated an ipad, i have to reset an ipad many times every time i download an app. Help please.

    I am having similar problems with iPad 3 freezing.  It was fine before upgrade to IOS 8.  Ready to throw it out!!  No one has any answers other than the norm.  Quite often have to hold power and home key down, which doesn't solve the problem.  It just unfreezes the situation you are in.  Wish this would be solved with the IOS 8!!  Should have never upgraded, but never had a problem with Apple software before.  Getting to feel like I am back with Windows.

  • Time Capsule + Airport Express (no password for extended guest network)

    Hi guys,
    I´m using at home an Time Capsule combined with an Airport Express for extended range.
    I´ve activated the Guest Network on the Time Capsule, using an WPA2 Password for it.
    Problem is, the Airport Express is extending both the regular network and the guest network, but there´s no password set for the extended guest network.
    So basically there are 4 networks, 3 are properly secured (TC regular and guest and AE regular) but I can´t set a password for the Guest Network that´s being extended by the Airport Express.
    I have looked everywhere on the AirPort Utility with no luck whatsoever.
    I appreciate any help on this.
    Kainan-Maki.

    Time Capsule and Airport Express, Windows 7
    So you don't have a Mac or even iOS device to setup the TC and express?
    This addition of extending guest is new in later firmware.. but you need the 6.2 utility to control it.. AFAIK.

  • User Name & Password for Deskjet J4580 - to print from Ipad via AirPrint

    Was able to install the airprint driver on computer.  My Ipad sees my printer but asks me for "user name" and "password" for HP Officejet j4500 series @ zeus".  I have tried all kind of passwords and it will not accept.  Wondering how I  can either obtain user name andpassword or reset them for my printer.

    Well, this is strange because this printer does not support AirPrint.  Maybe that is the problem altogether.
    I have no idea about the user name and password, it should not have them.

  • Can't find "Require Password" checkbox when creating network on MBP

    I'm trying to create a network as I've often done on a MacBook Pro.
    When I bring up the window to create the network, there is no "Require Password" checkbox.
    Does anyone know how to require a password please? I'm trying to create a little network for just my MBP, AppleTV and iPhone so that I run presentations via Airplay in a conference room, and I don't want everyone in the room logging onto my Mac. Thanks in advance.
    MBP Retina 13" late 2013. Yosemite 10.10.2

    OK I've managed to solve this problem but there's no rhyme or reason why what I did had any effect. I dug out the old printer and noticed that it was getting a 10.x IP address whereas the 710 was getting a 168.x IP address... that should have been my first clue, but I wasn't thinking. Nevertheless, I had no idea why it was getting that sort of IP address.
    So, I went through the manual set up (again) on the printer, and instead of searching for the SSID, I typed it in manually. Now it gets a 10.x IP address and it's showing up on my network.
    In the end, there is something screwy with the way the network software on the printer is handling its network search feature. Definitely an Epson thing, not Apple.

  • Evince print to network printer

    I'm having a hard time with this and nothing's coming up. I have a printer I'm successfully connected to via CUPS, I can print fine in OpenOffice.
    However, evince won't print. The "print" button is grayed out. I -need- to print PDFs and right now literally the only way is to borrow a windows machine and knock 'er out.
    Help!

    Unless you have a really abnormal printer/network configuration:
    sudo mv /etc/cups/cupsd.conf /etc/cups/cupsd.conf.bak
    sudo cp /etc/cups/cupsd.conf.default /etc/cups/cupsd.conf
    sudo /etc/rc.d/cups restart
    I had the same problem today....there's a slightly different cupsd.conf format, I guess.
    Good luck!
    Scott
    Edit:
    You might also change the AuthType line under   # All printer operations require a printer operator to authenticate...
    to
    AuthType none
    so it doesn't ask you for a password or fail silently if the program isn't designed to prompt you for a password.

  • Printing to network printer using JDK 1.3

    Hi everyone,
    We have the requirements from a client to enable them to be able to pick a printer from anywhere on our network and then send a report to that printer through a web application.
    We are restricted to using the 1.3 JDK on Weblogic 6.1
    I have searched this forum for info on how to print to a network printer and I have gotten lots of the code samples that look like the one below but I can't seem to get it to work.
    Any suggestions on how to accomplish this? Or what errors I'm making...
    Here is the error:
    Summary Statement Did Not Print: java.io.FileNotFoundException: \\BCHYDRO_TREE\cpp_07SE01_hp8150dn_ps-pcl.cpp7.gvd.lm.bchydro.ca (The system cannot find the file specified)
    Here is the sample code:
    import java.io.*;
    public class PrintTest
         public static void main (String args[])
              PrintTest pt = new PrintTest();
              pt.printAsText("This is a test");
         public void printAsText(String sSummaryStatement)
         try
         FileOutputStream fos = new
         FileOutputStream("\\\\BCHYDRO_TREE\\cpp_07SE01_hp8150dn_ps-pcl.cpp7.gvd.lm.bchydro.ca");
         PrintStream ps = new PrintStream(fos);
         ps.print("\r");
         ps.print(sSummaryStatement);
         ps.print("\f");
         ps.close();
         System.out.println("Print Job Sent");
         catch(Exception e)
         System.err.println("Summary Statement Did Not Print: " + e);
         }// end function printAsText()
    }

    Hello,
    I am also working on a very similar assignment and I was wondering if you have had any luck with your original post problem. I would appreciate it if you would post any discoveries that you have made as I believe we are travelling down the same road. Thanks!

  • Issue  : Automatic Barcode Printing on network printer .

    Hi everybody ,
                  I am printing barcode through network printer(zebra) , this is working fine .
                 But my requirement is whenever i will print barcode i have to open SAP LPD on network printer , so
                 is there any code through which i can directly pass my barcode file to SAP Comm Port  and it prints bar automatically .
                 It's  very  ...........................................................
    Thanks 'n' Regards ,
    Nilesh

    Hi Aidan ,
          Thaks for your reply .
          My requirement is :
           " Whenever user  scan a UPC no.  into SAP System ( or our SAP Prog)  should not create any Spool Request for barcode
              printing , it directly pass data to SAP Comport  and print label "
              Because there thousands of  UPC can be scan so thousands of spool will stored into SAP System , which decrease the
               performance plus extra space will consume by system .
            Is that possbile without creating a Spool data directly send to printer .
    Thanks 'n' Regards ,

  • Acrobat XI: Printing to networked printer fails without error message

    I'm using Windows 8 Professional.
    When I use Acrobat XI Professional or Reader XI to print to a networked printer, Acrobat and Reader throw up the Progress dialog, showing the document is getting spooled. However, nothing appears in my printer's status window and nothing gets printed. There are no error messages.
    When I use Windows 8 Pro's Reader app to print to the networked printer, it works just fine.
    I thus have a workaround, so not all is lost.
    However, how do I diagnose why only the Adobe applications on my computer can't use the networked printer?
    -- Tim
    Timothy J. McGowan

    Thanks for the advice.
    The problem is not solved.  This is what i have tried.
    Attempt 1.
    Log-in as Administrator via  "CRTL-ALT-DEL" twice at the Welcome window.
    "Repair" Adobe Acrobat XI Pro installation.
    Same failure as described earlier.
    Attempt 2.
    Log-in as Administrator via  "CRTL-ALT-DEL" twice at the Welcome window.
    Uninstall Acro XI Pro.
    Run :  acrobat_ittools_cleaner_p1_040612.zip
    Log of "cleaner" shows deletion of very many, but ot all, Registry Acro-associated keys.
    At end of uninstall and cleaner processes, re-start machine.
    Log-in again as Administrator via  "CRTL-ALT-DEL" twice at the Welcome window.
    Disable Norton 360 and Webroot Secure Anywhere prior to Acro XI Pro installation.
    Re-install Acro XI Pro (this time, for "Default" choice, as opposed to "Complete" in previous installs.)
    Outcome:  NO Adobe PDF printer.  HOWEVER, both during the "Repair" and re-install processes, a message did flash: "Creating the Adobe PDF Printer".
    Both Repair and re-install:  The Adobe PDF printer is not listed under "Manufacturer" when "Add Printer" is executed (see image below). 
    Proceeding via "Have Disk", C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 11.0\Acrobat\Xtras\AdobePDF\AdobePDF.inf,  yields the failure to install the driver previously described, for all ten (10) instance of the Adobe PDF Converter options.
    Thanks for any insights.
