Permissions on a Print Manager Plus SQL Database
By default the PrintManager database created on a SQL server, will have the same default permissions
as other databases on that SQL Server. In most cases, users within the network that are full
Administrators of the SQL Server, will also have full control of the Print Manager Plus database. Below is
each database type, and the recommended tool for setting permissions.
SQL Server 7.0/2000: Database permissions should be configured using the SQL Enterprise
Manager. This will allow you to specify which Active Directory accounts can access the PrintManager
database.
SQL Server 2005: This version of SQL comes with the SQL Server Management Studio. This will
allow
you to specify which Active Directory accounts can access the PrintManager database.
MSDE/SQL Server 2005 Express: These free versions of SQL from Microsoft do not come with a
built in tool for managing permissions. However the SQL Server Management Studio Express can be
used to manage these, and any of the previously mentioned version of SQL. This express version can
be downloaded at the Microsoft Download Center at http://www.microsoft.com/downloads.
Using the SQL Management Studio Express to Set Permissions:
Since the Management Studio Express mentioned above is capable of setting permissions on any SQL
Database support d by Print Manager Plus (SQL 7.0/2000/2005/MSDE), we have provided basic steps for
setting permissions on the Print Manager Plus database.
1. Open the SQL Management Studio Express
2. Connect to your server
3. Browse to the [Security] > [Logins]
4. Right click on Logins and choose [New Login]
5. A new dialog will appear, click Search and choose the Account or Group you wish to grant
permissions to the Print Manager Plus database.
6. Once that user or group is found and selected, click [User Mapping] on the Left Hand Side.
7. Check the database named PrintManager.
8. Once the PrintManager database has been selected, you will be able to select more specific
permissions in the bottom of the window. For most functions, you should grant

9. Click OK once the desired permissions have been set.
