Hi Folks

I've got a small issue with my Papercut Deployment I'm testing at the moment. The package I've got seems to deploy Papercut.app to the Applications folder no worries, I can run that manually as well without issue.

I also have the com.papercut.client.plist file in /Library/LaunchAgents with 644 permissions. But this is where I'm getting stuck, the file launches under the root/localadmin account but does not launch under other users on login.

Any help would be great

I have a poicy that runs a script at login. Would that be an option for you? Here is the script

!/bin/sh

echo "Launching PaperCut..."
/Applications/PCClient.app/Contents/Resources/login-hook-start "$3"

exit 0

What OS are you seeing the issue on?

Did you also set the owner:group to root:wheel?

PaperCut kbase on LaunchAgent Setup

I echo the LaunchAgent into existence with a script and policy via the JSS, and have not had any issues in macOS ranging from 10.11 to 10.13 for admin, standard, and mobile users opening PCClient at login.
