Manage processing of Queue-specific files (DEPRECATED)

Download ADMX

This setting has moved to a new inbox location which can be found at Printers\Manage processing of Queue-specific files. Manages how Queue-specific files are processed during printer installation. At printer installation time, a vendor-supplied installation application can specify a set of files, of any type, to be associated with a particular print queue. The files are downloaded to each client that connects to the print server. You can enable this setting to change the default behavior involving queue-specific files. To use this setting, select one of the options below from the "Manage processing of Queue-specific files" box. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, the default behavior is "Limit Queue-specific files to Color profiles". -- "Do not allow Queue-specific files" specifies that no queue-specific files will be allowed/processed during print queue/printer connection installation. -- "Limit Queue-specific files to Color profiles" specifies that only queue-specific files that adhere to the standard color profile scheme will be allowed. This means entries using the Registry Key CopyFiles\ICM, containing a Directory value of COLOR and supporting mscms.dll as the Module value. "Limit Queue-specific files to Color profiles" is the default behavior. -- "Allow all Queue-specific files" specifies that all queue-specific files will be allowed/processed during print queue/printer connection installation.
