can anyone tell me what the operator group is for, or docs where I can

deal with devices, e.g. running backups and monitoring printers.

The answer above is correct. I found the operator "group" described
in "Essential System Administration" by AEleen Frisch which is
published by O'Reilly & Associates, Inc.
