I need all AzureAD users to be able to add shared printers from specific machines

Question

Hello,

All users log in using Azure AD. I'm having an issue finding how to allow them to be able to add printers shared by other devices. Think Fedex/UPS shipping printers that are connected to one device and then shared over the network.

There is a Univeral Print User you can purchase through azure to be able to set up a print server for printers on the network. I haven't tried this. I am hoping this is a setting that can be taken care of through AD to blanket allow all users to add printers.

Thank you in advance.

PFB steps to be followed:

• For Azure AD joined devices Create a Universal Print policy in Microsoft Intune
