You are the desktop administrator of your company�s network. You install a print device on a Windows XP Professional computer. This print device should be used only by the desktop administration staff and by managers. You share the printer on the network as DTA-Print and assign Allow – Print permissions to the DTA-S group, which includes staff members� accounts, and the DTA-M group, which includes managers� accounts. Later, the managers report that they must wait a long time for their jobs to print. You discover that the desktop administration staff generates many problematic print jobs. As a result, the managers� print jobs must wait a long time in the print queue. You need to ensure that the managers� print jobs print as quickly as possible while minimizing hardware costs. What should you do?
A.
Install a second printer for the same print device on the Windows XP Professional computer. Share this printer as DTA-Manager, and grant Allow – Print permission to the DTA-M group only. Configure a priority setting of 1 on DTA-Print. Configure a priority setting of 99 on DTA-Manager.
B.
Install a second printer for the same print device on the Windows XP Professional computer. Share this printer as DTA-Manager, and grant Allow – Print permissions to the DTA-M group only. Configure a priority setting of 99 on DTA-Print. Configure a priority setting of 1 on DTA-Manager.
C.
Connect a second print device to the Windows XP Professional computer. Create a printer pool from the first defined printer. Configure a priority setting of 1 on the printer pool. Grant Allow – Manage Documents permission to DTA-M group.

Configure a priority setting of 99 on the printer pool. Grant Allow – Manage Documents permission to DTA-M group.
Explanation:
Any print jobs sent to the printer with the higher priority will be printed first. 99 is the highest priority and 1 is the lowest. We only want the managers to be able to use the higher priority printer so set the permissions accordingly.
Incorrect Answers:
B: The management printer must have the higher priority. 1 is the lowest priority.
C: There is no need for a second print device. Furthermore, this configuration will not ensure the managers print jobs print first.
D: There is no need for a second print device. Furthermore, this configuration will not ensure the managers print jobs print first.
