Policy

Print ticket safe mode

This policy setting allows you to determine whether Word, PowerPoint, or Excel turns off print ticket features the next time it attempts to use print ticket features after the application fails. Print ticket features include duplexing and stapling. If you enable or do not configure this policy setting, print ticket features are turned off if Word, PowerPoint, and Excel fail while attempting to use a printer's print ticket functionality. When the printer is next used, its print ticket features are turned off until the user requests to use them again. If you disable this policy setting, Word, PowerPoint, or Excel does not turn off print ticket features due to a previous application failure. This might result in repeated instances of the printer not responding.
