Universal Print: Office 365 Tenant to Tenant Migration Scenario

As part of separation of parent organization and we are in process to migrate child organization end user laptops or desktops, but the users will still follow:

  • might be working from Parent Organization office
  • might have Parent and child credentials
  • might be using Parent Wi-Fi or wired network

In this scenario, how the users will use printers and other parent infrastructure until we have the entire child infrastructure in place. Can we get help in this case how Universal Print be of help to child organization as in Future Mode of Operation they will have there separate Tenant, Domain and all the devices will be Azure AD join.

  • NikhilSinha-MS - Currently Universal Print does not support printing across tenant boundaries. This is a feature request you can place on https://aka.ms/UPIdeas.

     

    If you are using Universal Print connector, you can deploy two different connectors - one for each Azure AD tenant. You can install the same printer on both connectors. From first connector register this printer with first Azure AD tenant. With second connector you can register the printer with second Azure AD tenant.

     

    Each tenant's printers will then need to be managed in their own Universal Print admin portal. Users will need to add the printer depending on which workplace account their Windows device is connected to.

     

    Hope this helps!

     

    Thanks,
