Creating Configuration Manager administrator accounts
📘 Instructions
As of PrinterOn version 4.2.4, PrinterOn supports two PrinterOn roles to which you can assign all users in your system:
User: The user role should be assigned to all users who will be using PrinterOn’s
printing services.
Administrator: The Administrator role should be assigned only to those users who will be administering the PrinterOn service. PrinterOn users who are assigned the Administrator role can use their credentials to log into Configuration Manager to modify settings or assign the Administrator role to other users.
Administration privileges are granted through Access Control Rules that you apply to a specific user or group of users. The easiest way to manage multiple administrators is to create a group, and then apply an Access control rule to that group. You can then add or remove users from that group to grant or revoke Administrator privileges.
If you are using the PrinterOn Internal Users authentication method, you’ll need to create PrinterOn accounts for each user who will be accessing the PrinterOn service.
Note: If you are using Azure AD or another third-party IDM service, user account information is provisioned to the PrinterOn user store when a user authenticates to use the service for the first time. Therefore, in order to add a users to the Administrator group, they must first authenticate with the service.
