    The least intrusive method would be account track and then all you have to do is enter the password into the print driver and bob's your uncle.
    Walking up to the machine users would enter the password and with the password entered in the driver printing is unaffected.

        you can allow print without authentication.
        We know a thing or two because we've seen a thing or two.
        The medication helps though...

          Yes I am aware of this but the church has multiple users, many with laptops not on site so it is critical I ONLY restrict copying or the users will turn up with laptops & tables etc & won't be able to print.

            User authentication is the way to go here.Public user setup to allow printing, scanning, restrict copy..Walk up users are presented with a login screen, print users can print w/o any restrictions (once driver is updated). Account track can't be tailored to allow print (print w/o authentication is normally used with 3rd party apps). E
