    To ensure that only authorized users can send print jobs to the printer, the manager can

    A. Enable user authentication on the printer share.

    Explanation:

    In this scenario, option A is best way to avoid the user from unintentionally printing as the user authentication on the printer share will ask everyone their credentials to use the printer. Option B is not correct as print spooling allows the user to print documents in bulk amount. As the manager is concerned about the cost of consumables for the printer and does not want users to unintentionally print to the printer, so we can't use this strategy. Option C is not good way to tackle this issue as it will ask everyone from to provide their credentials even they don't want to use the printer. Option D is also not good as disabling the local share will limit the user to get the print remotely.
