jlucas Posted December 5, 2014 Posted December 5, 2014 Hi We've recently had a bit of a problem with the kids using AirPrint to send pictures from their phones direct to the printers. We've managed to turn off the ports (UPD 5353 and mDNS) on the printers which has stopped them printing direct, however they are now using the Mac Servers print sharing to send jobs that way. Does anyone know how to turn off AirPrint but keep the printers shared so the iMacs can use them? The best solution would be to VLAN the kids phones and guest devices but our network infrastructure is old and a lot of it is not capable of doing VLANs. Until a lot of money turns up to VLANs are out and I need a cheaper/free way of stopping them printing. Does anyone have any ideas?
tmoon-mint Posted December 5, 2014 Posted December 5, 2014 Are they shared via Bonjour on the Mac server? If not then simply turning off Bonjour on the printer should do the trick. On HPs this is done through the interface.
