A.
True

B.
False

Explanation:
Initial answer = true => false the key is all users and change the status of documents. Change the
status document refers to the “Manage Document” permission and it’s not a default permission for
“all users”. By default, so far, a user can only modify status of the jobs that he initiated himself. but i
tested to make sure. I installed 2 fake printers (one by the network, and one using LPT1) and here’s
the default permissions i have got:

If we consider that Everyone can be used to designate “all users”, the above screenshot is enough.
but just to be sure, i’ll add the “Domain Users” and “Authenticated Users” groups to the permissions
to check which permission are assigned by default: exactly the same: only the permission to print
documents:

Now we can be sure the answer is “FALSE”.
NB: by default, only Administrators (and administrator) and “All Application Packages” have both
permissions (print & manage documents) http://technet.microsoft.com/enus/library/cc773372%28v=ws.10%29.aspx Assigning printer permissions When a printer is installed
on a network, default printer permissions are assigned that allow all users to print, and allow select
groups to manage the printer, the documents sent to it, or both.
Because the printer is available to all users on the network, you might want to limit access for some
users by assigning specific printer permissions. For example, you could give all non administrative
users in a department the Print permission and give all managers the Print and Manage Documents
permissions. In this way, all users and managers can print documents, but managers can also change
the print status of any document sent to the printer.
