Levels of access and control
To prepare for printing at your site, you must do some initial EX7750 configuration, 
or Setup, to specify the network environment and the kind of printing you will do. 
Before you perform Setup, you must decide the levels of access you will implement for 
your site. Administrators and operators must also understand how EX7750 system 
software is structured in order to configure and use the EX7750 system correctly.
Levels of access and control
When you configure the EX7750 during Setup, you (as system administrator) 
implement a particular level of control by enabling or not enabling print connections, 
passwords, and access to WebTools. The level of control you implement can range 
from minimum to moderate to maximum—or none at all. 
• Minimum control might be appropriate for a small site where anyone on the local 
network can control all printing and EX7750 functions. Although there may be an 
administrator or operator charged with certain duties, all users have equal access to 
the system and job management tools.
• Maximum control might be appropriate for a high-volume printing environment 
where an administrator or operator controls the job flow and all printing; jobs sent 
by users are spooled (stored) to the EX7750 disk until the operator decides it is time 
to print them. In addition, only the administrator and operator have access to job 
management tools. We recommend this level of control.
EX7750 print connections
The EX7750 supports three print connections: Hold queue, Print queue, and Direct 
connection. These print connections can be enabled, or “published,” to users on the 
network when you configure Printer Setup. All published connections are constantly 
checked for the presence of jobs. The Print queue and Direct connection give remote 
users more direct access to the EX7750 than the Hold queue. Therefore, do not 
publish the Print queue and the Direct connection in environments where maximum 
control is desired.
