Creating Printer Device Profile

Device Profiles help IT Admins group various policies in one place. Any changes to the profile are automatically applied to all the devices currently associated with the profile. Device Profiles can also be attached with Device Groups to apply common policies on all the devices.

This document helps you to create a device profile for printer.
