Go to System-->Administration-->Printing and right-click your printer and select properties, this will bring up the printer configuration window, select Access Control and set up user access there.

Well, it should be blocked via a router. If you do not have a router, consider adding one.
A second line of defense would be a firewall, such as ufw. There is a graphical front end, gufw ;)

HI
I made that, but i still nedd to ask the password for the user, because we changed a windows accounto to one that i add to the access control and get printed all the pages.
I this this way isn't too secure.
If the re is a possible to add an passord toeach account....
Thank's in advance.
