To change settings in print output, click the Policies tab.

For example, to create a banner page (a page that describes aspects of the print job such as the originating printer, the username from the which the job originated, and the security status of the document being printed) click the Starting Banner or Ending Banner drop-menu and choose the option that best describes the nature of the print jobs (such as topsecret, classified, or confidential).

You can change user-level access to the configured printer by clicking the Access Control tab.

Add users using the text box and click the Add button beside it. You can then choose to only allow use of the printer to that subset of users or deny use to those users.
