Create print queue user
The creation of users of the print queue functionality is necessary in order to:
install the TCP/IP print queue on users and/or grouping of users
link user information (full name, logon and domain) to the print queue installed on computers and/or groupings of computers
Once the DCA and Cloud Connector agent has been installed on a computer, users accessing that computer will automatically be created in the NDD Orbix portal.
Users can also be created individually, via user import or via grouping import.
To use this functionality, the DCA and Cloud Connector agent must be version 1.0.15 or higher.
Who can use this feature
Users with the Admin or User management (the print queues category) permission

if the user is not yet registered, they will be registered
if a user is already registered with the same customer, logon and domain, but with different full name and/or email details, these details will be updated according to the new import
if there is already a user registered with the same customer, logon and domain, but with a blank full name and/or email address, the data will not be changed
