Is there confirmation at this stage as to whether or not Microsoft 365 Business Standard customers will have Universal Print included as an add-on (or inclusion) when it exits public preview?
- Braeden_Petruk_MSFT
AndrewSwan Universal Print will not be included in Microsoft 365 Business Standard, but we are considering a standalone subscription option which would enable Universal Print to be added to a subscription at a nominal cost.
- Thank you for the confirmation!
- Is this available in all regions? Especially I am interested in Europe and UK?
- Saurabh_BansalYes - its available in Europe and UK
Universal Print available for Microsoft 365 E3 and A3! Need to rely on other subscriptions? “You can't use Universal Print Trial without a compatible primary subscription. Find compatible subscriptions.”Braeden_Petruk_MSFT
Hi we've Office 365 E3 licenses, but don't have the option to enable it on the tenant.
Is there someting I missed?
RoyvdSterren - no you haven't missed anything (well, apart from missing the trial). We are in the same boat, where we have individual O365E5, EMSE5 and Win10E5 licenses, i.e. essentially the licenses that make up the M365 E5 license, but we still won't be able to activate the trial until it becomes available for Win10E5. Also note, that if you just have O365E3, you won't get the trial according to the list at https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/universal-print/fundamentals/universal-print-preview-access
You need either an M365 license or a WIn10 license.

Braeden_Petruk_MSFT Hello - could you please confirm which component it sits in under the M365 A3 Shared Server SKU? Is it Office 365 A3, EMS E3 or Windows 10 Ent for Education A3?
- Braeden_Petruk_MSFTIn your case you'd get it through your Windows 10 A3 subscription.
- Thanks @BraedenP - I have had them try assign the Windows 10 A3 Subscription but it provides a message stating they are not eligible for the universal print subscription. They have M365 A3 as the Shared Server SKU but not the Unified Shared Server SKU but it doesn't matter as they are both M365 A3 so it should work. Can you please advise what the issue is?

YM-10 I sent you a PM to collect the necessary details to fix your problem.
Braeden_Petruk_MSFT Hi I replied back with the information are you able to provide next steps?
honliumicrosoftBraeden_Petruk_MSFT hi Braeden, one of my customer is interested in Universal Print. Their current print server is hosted on Windows 2008, and they would like to confirm if Universal Print doesn't print server, and will it be easy for them to switch to Universal Print from their current infra.
- Hello all. Is Universal Print preview available for Microsoft 365 E5 CSP subscriptions? Thank you.
