Connecting iOS MDM devices to AirPrint

To enable printing documents from an iOS MDM device wirelessly using AirPrint, configure automatic connection to AirPrint printers. The mobile device and printer must be connected to the same wireless network. Shared access for all users must be configured on the AirPrint printer.

To configure the connection of an iOS MDM device to an AirPrint printer:

  1. In the main window of Kaspersky Security Center Web Console, select Assets (Devices)Policies & profiles. In the list of group policies that opens, click the name of the policy that you want to configure.
  2. In the policy properties window, select Application settings.
  3. Select iOS and go to the Device configuration section.
  4. On the AirPrint card, click Settings.

    The AirPrint window opens.

  5. Enable the settings using the AirPrint toggle switch.
  6. Click Add.

    The Add printer window opens.

  7. In the IP address or FQDN field, enter the IP address or a fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the AirPrint printer.
  8. In the Port field, enter the listening port of the AirPrint destination.
  9. In the Resource path field, enter the path to the AirPrint printer.

    The path to the printer corresponds to the rp (resource path) key of the Bonjour protocol. For example:

    • printers/Canon_MG5300_series
    • ipp/print
    • Epson_IPP_Printer
  10. If you want to protect the connection to the AirPrint printer using the TLS protocol, select the Use TLS check box.
  11. Click Add.

    The newly added AirPrint printer appears in the list.

  12. Click OK.
  13. Click Save to save the changes you have made.

As a result, once the policy is applied, the mobile device user can wirelessly print documents on the AirPrint printer.
