We have a bunch of printer presets set for our users. We use "Find Me" printing with our fleet of 50+ Canon copiers.

I would like to configure Presets so our users can select "Last Used Settings" if they like, but it is always going back to "Default Settings".

So I am wondering if this feature is NOT available??? If I send out presets, can I not allow my users to select "Last Used Settings"?

If you deploy the printers with Jamf, yes you can configure the settings. If you are letting users map their own printers, the OS will use the default settings every time it maps the printer. You can use CLI to interface with CUPS to change various settings, but the settings would still be the default until the Policy that deployed the command ran to modify the settings.

 

TLDR; If you need to manage printer settings, you need to deploy the printer mappings with a Policy.
