Managing the PrinterOn user store
PrinterOn includes its own user store that you can use as for identity management and access control. The PrinterOn user store lets you manage users, organize them into groups, and create access control rules to manage access to PrinterOn resources. You can manage the PrinterOn user store from the Users tab in the Configuration Manager.
The PrinterOn user store is used to store user data in conjunction with the Internal Users, Azure AD, and Third-Party Identity Management Service authentication methods. The users tab is only accessible when one of these authentication methods is selected on the Authentication tab. For more information on configuring these authentication methods, see Configuring authentication settings.
For Internal User authentication, the PrinterOn user store is the sole repository for user information; you must create the user accounts, user groups, and access rules yourself.
Note: PrinterOn supports the bulk import of users into the PrinterOn user store. For information on importing, see Importing users into the PrinterOn user store.
For Azure AD and all Third-Party Identity Management Services (IDM), user accounts are created in your IDM’s user store and then provisioned to the PrinterOn user store. PrinterOn synchronizes its user store with the IDM’s user store at regular intervals.
All authentication is performed against the IDM’s user store. The PrinterOn user store is only used for controlling access to PrinterOn resources; you’ll need to create access control rules and, if necessary, user groups, in the PrinterOn user store.
