13.95. How to add groups to a print queue

1. Open the Print queue properties page.
2. Select the Groups tab. Only available if groups (Microsoft Entra or Google) are enabled.
3. Select Add groups to add groups.

4. Check Show all to show all groups, including those that have not been added to a print queue.
   Depending on your organization, there may be a large number of groups, perhaps even 1000s.
   • Uncheck Show all to show only groups that have been added to print queues.
   • Select Search to search by group name.
     Uppercase and lowercase letters are treated the same.

*If the group can not be found, then check Show all and select Resynchronize groups (dialog will close) and repeat the Search.

5. Select the groups to be added to the print queue.
6. Select Continue.
   • Select Back to go back to change the selection of groups.
   • Check Exclusive access if you want to give the group members exclusive access to the print queue.
   • Check Add print queue automatically if you want the print queue to be added automatically to the computers in the group. Users in the group will have the print queue added to the computer, when they sign in.
   • Check Set as default printer if you want the print queue to become the default printer for the users and computers in the group.

*If Set as default printer is checked for multiple print queues it will be random, which one will be set as default. Printix Client will override the user’s selection of default printer every time the Printix Service is started and or it receives updates to its list of printers and their configuration.

*If Exclusive access is checked for one group, then if you check Add print queue automatically for any other groups, those groups should also have Exclusive access checked.

7. Select Confirm.
