Conditions

Administrators will be more willing to grant access to the printers if they can restrict the access to the resources to users or organizations they trust. Further, the administrators should be able to specify time availability, restrictions on resources consumed by the clients and accounting for the consumed resources. To specify these limits, the Printer Manager uses generic conditions, such as time, location, payment and quota. An example of Printer Manager-specific condition: printer load, expressed as maximum number of jobs that allowed to be submitted to a printer.
