Chapter 1 About Print Service 19
Security Considerations
AppleTalk and LPR printer queues do not support authentication. Print service relies on
the client to provide user information. Although standard Macintosh and Windows
clients provide accurate information, a clever user could potentially modify the client to
submit false information and thereby avoid print quotas.
Windows service does support authentication, requiring users to log in before using
SMB/CIFS printers.
Basic and Digest (MD5) authentication is built into CUPS software on which print
service relies and supports a print job submission method called Internet Printing
Protocol (IPP).
