Re: Device Control Printer Protection - Blocks Print to PDF
MaximilianMueller1018 short answer no help with current OS and build but a little more info below from MS..... - If you are using Microsoft Defender for Endpoint Device Control Printer Protection | Microsoft Docs: yeah, ‘print to PDF’/’print to XPS’ is not supported, because of the technical limitation, we can not support this. - Because of this gap and several other gaps, we are currently working on a new feature called ‘Printer Protection V2’, which will close this gap. - Currently this feature is in private preview. - Different from the V1, the V2 includes two parts: media group and policy. You can create any printer groups, e.g. group_1 for USB Printer, group_2 for ‘print to PDF/XPS’, group_3 for network printer. And then you can create policy to restrict each printer group, for example, overall BLOCK but allow group_1 and group_2 in any conditional and allow group_3 if the enduser is using corporate network or VPN. And you can also mark for allowed printer, have file information (file path), even have a copy of the printed file as evidence. - V1 is purely powered by OS, but V2 is based on OS and MDE/Defender (passive mode will also work). - For the private preview, you will need to install specific Windows 11 build/Windows insider Program, we are currently working on backporting.10KViews0likes2CommentsRe: Device Control Printer Protection - Blocks Print to PDF
Gineok630 and effjaay I am looking into this as well, utilizing the PID/VIDs works as expected on printers but have had no luck finding a way to allow for Print to PDF or OneNote, Wanted to see if you two or anyone else has had any luck. Thanks!11KViews0likes0Comments
