Abstract
A method to modify the availability of one or more attributes within a print network. One or more devices are interrogated to determine associated attributes. A first set of attribute combinations that cause device failure is determined and placed in an unsupported bank for each device. A second set of attribute combinations that do not cause device failure are determined and placed in a supported bank for each device. Access to the first set of attribute combinations is disabled and access to the second set of attribute combinations is enabled.
