This is from a vocabulary building book. Doe this mean the dean approved her to print the smoking ban (notice) or something?

@tatsuca it means that she gave her official permission on the ban. She is using her power as the Dean to say she approves of the ban.

I have never seen this word before, but according to wikipedia it means,"An imprimatur is a declaration authorizing publication of a book. The term is also applied loosely to any mark of approval or endorsement."
The sentence means that the dean allowed the smoking ban. The dean put her approval on the smoking ban. (The dean is the "she".)
Hope this helps :)

@Hikki07 @MastahxGraffiti Ooh, I see! I thought "her" was another person, like a student, but it was the dean. I just believed the dean was a man What a stereotype I had! ^^;)
