![]() ![]() I don't manage Papercut where I work now (and I'm not sure if we have Google Accounts linked to the AD accounts within Papercut) but prior to this I did set it up at my last job. > Also put a feature request in to have it append the user to the print job months ago as well.but haven't looked into it since the summer. You can't track which user printed what using Papercut because its sending the job based on the device ID and that randomly changes. Not sharing printers to users has only one down fall. I originally had teachers setup groups but found that to be way to time consuming. I then share them out individually to different Chromebook OUs, between 7 buildings and 1500 devices.I do not share any printers with individual users or groups. Initially I thought it had to do with Google's two week timeout period (if you stay logged into a Google account for two weeks or longer it will sign you out), but Google support ensured me this doesn't happen with the print service, so I'm not sure what is going on.) - I've already made Google support aware of this issue months ago, haven't really had the issue in a while though.Įdit - I manage over 80 printers from one generic 'Google.print' Google account and one print server. Stopping and starting the service always fixes the issue. The only known glitch I ever run into is when the service seems to crash on the server.the printer will show online to users and they can send print jobs but nothing prints out. Google support is great and will go further than they usually are supposed to. I hope you can understand all my gibberish here it really does work and it's simple.Īlso - Google Cloud Print is still only Beta, so you can't really bash on anything. I started it by using a server and adding printer then just keeping an account logged in but, Chrome logs you our after 2 weeks and I kept forgetting to go back and log in. You can do the sharing using more than one person and they can print from anywhere including iPads. The reason I did it this way? I tried the whole cloud print and print servers and all the other stuff and realized this was a ton easier. I actually did tell the people that were sharing printers but, you don't have to. They don't even know that their account was sharing the printers on their desktop with different groups to use to print. They log into their Google account when they get there. For example, a teacher or aid that comes in every morning. ![]() ![]() I found a desktop (Mac or Windows) that was logged into Google Apps every day. What I did after lots of other ideas is, I just shared the printer through Google Apps. ![]()
