• Separator pages have two functions.
• Microsoft Windows 2000 includes four separator pages.
• You can build your own custom separator pages by creating a .sep file that contains legal printer commands.
• You can customize existing .sep files.

Taking Ownership of a Printer
• By default, the person who installs the printer owns it.
• A number of users can take ownership of a printer.
• Taking ownership of a printer is an advanced security feature that can be accessed from the Advanced button on the Security tab of a printer’s Properties dialog box.
• Auditing can be used to track who successfully and unsuccessfully attempts to take ownership of a printer.

• You must have the Manage Documents permission for the appropriate printer to perform these actions.
• To manage a document, open the window for the printer and select the document.
• You can perform a number of tasks when managing individual documents.

Overview of Printing and Active Directory Services
• Information about printer queues, sites, names, and addresses is kept in the Active Directory store.
• Pertinent characteristics of the relationship between printer servers and Active Directory services include various types of information.
• By default, printing is integrated with Active Directory services to work without administrative intervention.

Overview of Publishing Windows 2000 Printers
![Page 28: Printing Terminology. Requirements for Network Printing At least one computer to operate as the print server Sufficient RAM to process documents Sufficient](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032705/56649db25503460f94aa1746/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Publishing Mechanisms
• The print server sends data asynchronously to Active Directory services.
• The printer is published to a random domain controller, so a query might not show the printer until it has been replicated to all the domain controllers.
![Page 29: Printing Terminology. Requirements for Network Printing At least one computer to operate as the print server Sufficient RAM to process documents Sufficient](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032705/56649db25503460f94aa1746/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Pruning Orphans
• When a printer is deleted from a print server, the corresponding Active Directory object is removed.
• An orphan pruner runs on each domain controller to periodically check for orphaned printer objects. If a printer does not exist, the object is deleted.
• The orphan pruner is controlled by several policy settings.
• The print server verifies that its printers are published when it restarts and the spooler starts up.

Supporting Windows NT Printers
• Printers that are on print servers running Microsoft Windows NT 3.51 or Windows NT 4.0 can be published in Active Directory services.
• Use the Active Directory Users And Computers snap-in to publish the printers.

Downloading Printer Drivers
• The client computer automatically downloads the printer driver.
• Print drivers are platform specific.
• Client computers running Windows 2000 and Windows NT verify that they have the current printer driver each time they print.
