Assign Universal Print license

Once Universal Print is enabled for a tenant (subscription is purchased and Universal Print add-on is enabled), a Universal Print license needs to be assigned to every user who will be using it, including administrators who will manage printers.

• Microsoft 365 Admin Center > User Management
• Click on the user you want to assign license > Side panel will show up
• Click “Licenses & Apss” tab
• Check “Universal Print”
• Save Changes

To avoid sync problem from Admin center to Azure AD

• Create new user: https://admin.microsoft.com/Adminportal/Home?#/users/:/adduser
• Product licenses: check both Microsoft 365 Business Premium license and Universal Print
• Optional Setting: Click show all by category and check:
• Global admin (if you want)
• Print admin
• Print tech

Assign Print Administrator Azure AD Role

To configure and manage Universal Print printers, an administrator must be assigned either of the following Azure AD roles:

• Printer Administrator
• Global Administrator

Both Microsoft 365 and Azure portal should be backed by same Azure AD

• Go to Azure portal: https://portal.azure.com/#home
• Search “Active Directory” > Go to Azure Active Directory
• Users > Click on the target user > Assigned roles > Add assignments
• Search “Print” > Check “Print Administrator” > Add
