Description

• See Configuring and using Shared Queues for configuration and deployment information.

User Stories

1. Shared Queues - As a User I want to print my documents in the way so that my colleagues working in the same workgroup can release them on the printers (using Print roaming story)

Requirements

• User shall be able to print the document and share it automatically by administrator-defined group of users.

• Defined users should be able to list and release print jobs shared by another user via Terminal

• User shall be able to see the author of the print job at the job list (Print job list management and re-print)

Dependencies / Non Functional Requirements

• Print roaming with print queue management and re-print must be configured.

• Print drivers must send print data to SafeQ server using YSoft SafeQ Client

• Printers must be equipped by terminal with graphical display (Professional or Embedded)

Caveats

• Shared print jobs are also available on "print all" user action of print queue management.

• Released print job changes owner to person who released it and thus is being accounted to this person, not the originating author!

• Document is removed from the Shared queue after it has been released to the printer. The name of document's job-queue is changed by adding prefix "shared-".

• Marking shared job as favorite is not supported at the moment.

Licensing

Workgroup print sharing feature is a standalone licensed feature since YSoft SafeQ 5.0 with following limitation if license for the feature expires or is not available in a license. Please see License content per version to review all SafeQ version and availability of a feature.

• There are no menus and option to configure shared queues on web interface.

• Terminal does not display jobs sent to shared queue which has been created in a system while license was valid.
