Managing PrinterLogic access through AD Department Group Tools
Managing PrinterLogic Access Groups
Using a managed group to control printer access makes it easier to control access to shared departmental printers and delegate group management to authorized staff.
These AD access groups will have already been provisioned to be accessible through PrinterLogic, and are meant to reflect department permissions. If a new access group to be created, please reach out to LAITS support to have a new AD group provisioned and added to PrinterLogic.
If you have been delegated as a PrinterLogic group manager, follow the steps below to add or remove users from your group.
Add a user to a PrinterLogic access group
Go to austin.utexas.edu and sign in with your UT EID and password.
Select Department Group Tools.
In the left-hand menu, select Managed Group Membership.
Confirm that Select a Departmental OU is set to the correct department (e.g. COLAITS, NURS, CEDO, etc.)
Under Select a Managed Group, choose the PrinterLogic users group you manage. The group name typically follows this format:
DEPT-PrinterLogic-GROUP-NAME.If no groups appear in the dropdown, contact LAITS at 512-471-5000 or chat.laits.utexas.edu so they can add you as a manager. It can take between 30-60 minutes for permissions to fully reflect in the group.
In the Enter the EID or Security Group Name to Add field, enter the EID of the user you wish to add.
Select Check Name to verify the EID.
In the search results, select the correct user and then select Add Member.
