limit access to Fiery queue

We have printers on our intranet that use Fiery X3's and X3e's. We would
like to allow only a small subset of our 3000 users to print to each of the
Fiery boxes. Workstations and servers are all Win2000. We have established
print queues on a Win2000 print server that send output to the Fiery queues.
We can use standard Win2000 access control to limit access to these Win2000
print queues, as needed. However, users can print to the Fierys without
going through the Win2000 print server queues, effectively bypassing the
access control.

Is there a way to cut off this access and accept input only from the Win2000
print queue? (The manuals are not helping.)

Thanks in advance!
 
If you are able to :
* disable NetBios printing on your X3 controlers ;
* enable TCP/IP (LPR or Socket) printing on your X3 controlers ;
* disable TCP/IP (LPR and Socket) printing on your 3000 workstations ;
* enable TCP/IP (LPR or Socket) printing on your Win2000 print servers...
then you can force users to pass through Win2000 servers, which will be the
only owns allowed to directly print to the Fierys.
