Question

Not able to print from Google Docs

Hi all,

 

we provided Google docs, sheets and slides to our devices.

We set managed app config (allow of using printing api and usage without Google account).

We noticed now that printing is possible on sheets and slides but not on docs.

Is there any known issue rgarding this? I mean I'm a bit confused because it works from the other two.

 

Maybe @Lizzie and @ReeceK you kno more about that or can ask internally?

Hi @Moombas 

 

I hope you're having a great Monday!

 

I wanted to double-check with you: Have you successfully printed via Google Docs before? Also, have you checked with your colleagues to see if this is a problem specific to you or if it's affecting others in the company as well?

 

Thanks, Reece

Hi ReeceK,

we tested on several devices (my test device and even devices out in production).

All look the same. Sheet and slides are fine but docs doesn't show up this option on the devices.

Hi @Moombas 

 

We are verifying if there are any known issues in regards to printing via Google Docs. 

 

Are you able to share the app config string you used and is the app config assigned to each of these applications within the application panel of your EMM?

 

Thanks,

Reece


Hi @ReeceK,

we don't provide any config string, we just tick the options on the MDM GUI (see last screenshot provided before) and then it's provided by the MDM (Soti Mobicontrol) to the devices. We provide apps only using the EMM, nothing else.
