Universal Print GCC

Question about universal print in GCC.  The MS site states that with G3 or G5 you also need the “extra features sku” or windows ols activation sku.  Do you know what the “extra features” sku is?  The site has no further mention of it and I cant find anything else on the topic.  If we have to go windows ols, that is only available through open value?

    We use G3 and that's all it takes.  Finding printers that support GCC/GCCH natively is another thing.

    1. Understand Requirements for Universal Print in GCC:
      • Universal Print in GCC with Microsoft 365 G3 or G5 requires an additional “extra features” SKU or Windows OLS (Online Service) Activation SKU.
    2. Check Availability of “Extra Features” SKU:
      • The “extra features” SKU refers to additional licensing components sometimes bundled as an add-on. It may include print management tools, security features, or integration options.
      • Since Microsoft’s site lacks details, contact Microsoft support or your Microsoft reseller to confirm SKU specifics.
    3. Windows OLS Activation SKU Details:
      • If the “extra features” SKU is unavailable, a Windows Online Services Activation (OLS) SKU can fulfill the requirement.
      • For GCC users, this is typically available through Open Value licensing, a Microsoft Volume Licensing program for government organizations.
    4. Contact Microsoft Licensing for Clarification:
      • If unsure about SKU details or license compatibility, reach out to Microsoft Licensing support. They can provide SKU specifics for GCC and advise on Open Value options.

    This should help clarify the steps and next actions for accessing Universal Print with GCC. If you can not understand these steps then you can visit for detail this website: https://dooflixapk.info/. 

  • GCC SKUs are slightly different. The extra features SKU should be available as part of G3/G5 license. Please work with your licensing partner to ensure they add it.

      Hello, I've had some enormous difficulties trying to obtain this SKU and Universal print for our environment. We have all G3 and two G5 licenses. I've tried MS customer support, but they just tried to help me enter a ticket into "actual Microsoft support", which failed. Additionally, our 365 vendor states that the SKU is only available for enterprise agreements. Do you know of any way forward for us? Thank you!
