Embodiment Construction

[0022] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that this embodiment is based on the technical solution, and provides detailed implementation and specific operation process, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the present invention. Example.

[0023] like figure 1 The overall structure of the printing management and control system based on the CUPS architecture is shown. The method of the present invention is based on the CUPS framework, including virtual printer driver, user configuration, printing records, and multiple physical printers. Virtual printer drivers and physical printers are installed on the CUPS framework, and user configuration and printing records are stored in system memory.

[0024] CUPS is the underlying framework of the present invention, used to support virtual printers and physical printers, and provide support for printer access control.

Abstract

The invention discloses a printing management and control method based on a CUPS framework. The printing management and control method includes the steps of firstly, designing and installing a virtual printer drive based on the CUPS framework; secondly, controlling the access to a virtual printer and a physical printer through a CUPS; thirdly, configuring the physical printer capable of being used by different users; fourthly, monitoring user printing operation; fifthly, selecting the physical printer by a user; sixthly, generating printing records; seventhly, storing printing content and embedding user information; eighthly, outputting the printing content through the physical printer; ninthly, completing the printing records. The method is suitable for all operation systems using the CUPS framework including the Unix system, the Linux operation system, the domestic operation system and the Mac system. By controlling the access to the physical printer, printing management is achieved, and basic data are provided for subsequent file source tracking and auditing by processing and storing the printing content.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of document printing management and control, and in particular relates to a printing management and control method based on CUPS (Common Unix Printing System, common Unix printing system) architecture. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of digital technology, many industries and individuals generally use electronic documents to process data and store information, and often display the contents of electronic documents on paper by printing, copying, etc. for reading and dissemination. This process undoubtedly presents a major challenge to the confidentiality of data and information. Existing problems include: how to control the use of printers by users to avoid paper waste and printer loss; how to record user information for printing operations and embed it into the print data so that the formed paper documents have an obvious identity representation, which is convenient for paper documen...
