Connect button causing prints to fail

I just got Octoprint running at my work and a bunch staff are connecting to the IP, but seems pretty often they are clicking connect and it causes the prints to fail. Is there a way to disable connecting on a non admin account to a viewing only mode or prevent this from happening without having to take away viewing privileges from other staff members?

I know I could just tell everyone to not click the connect button, but with the more people that have access the less likely that will work on every print. I just had a 12 hr print fail because of this.
