Cloud Printing for Jamf-Managed Apple Devices
Deploy the ezeep Print App to your entire Apple fleet through Jamf. Push printer assignments and print settings via managed configurations. Every Mac, iPhone, and iPad gets access to any printer without AirPrint dependencies or manual setup.
What Does the ezeep Integration with Jamf Do?
Deploy the Print App at Scale
Push the ezeep Print App to Macs, iPhones, and iPads through Jamf Pro, Jamf School, or Jamf Now. Deploy per-device, through Blueprints, or via Self Service. No manual installs, no user intervention required.
Push Printer Assignments and Print Settings
Use Apple's managed configurations through Jamf to assign specific printers, restrict color printing, enforce duplex, or set default preferences. Users get a preconfigured printing experience without touching a single setting themselves.
Print Without AirPrint Limitations
ezeep routes jobs through the cloud, so Apple devices can print to any printer, not just AirPrint-compatible ones. This includes printers on separate networks, in branch offices, or behind firewalls.
Built for IT Teams Managing Apple at Scale
Enterprise Apple Deployments
Organizations rolling out Macs, iPads, and iPhones across departments need printing that works from day one. ezeep and Jamf ensure every device gets the right printers with the right policies, automatically.
Education and Campus Environments
Schools and universities deploying iPads and Macs to students and staff need reliable printing without AirPrint infrastructure. ezeep connects any printer, and Jamf Pro or Jamf School handles the app rollout.
Hybrid and Multi-Site Workforces
Apple users working from offices, home, and on the road need printing that follows them. ezeep routes jobs through the cloud so location doesn't matter. Jamf keeps the app and configuration current across every device.
Healthcare and Regulated Industries
Organizations requiring secure document output from Apple devices benefit from Pull Printing combined with centralized control through Jamf's compliance policies. Documents are released only after authentication at the printer.
Granular Print Control Through Jamf Managed Configurations
Printer Assignments by User, Group, or Device
Assign specific printers to individual users, Jamf Smart Groups, or device types through managed configurations.
Users see only the printers IT has approved for them, and assignments update automatically when group membership changes.
Default Print Settings and Restrictions
Enforce duplex, restrict color printing to specific groups, and set default paper size and quality through Jamf.
These preferences are applied silently and override whatever the user had before, so every print job starts with the right defaults.
Pull Printing for Secure Document Release
Enable Pull Printing through managed configurations so documents are held in the cloud until the user authenticates at the printer.
For healthcare, legal, and finance teams on Apple devices, this keeps confidential output from sitting exposed on shared trays.
Cloud Rendering Instead of CUPS and PPD Files
Unlike Jamf's built-in printer deployment, which relies on CUPS queues, PPD files, and manufacturer drivers on each Mac, ezeep handles all rendering in the cloud.
There are no drivers to package, no per-model configurations to maintain, and no compatibility issues when macOS updates break printer drivers.
Less Infrastructure. More Calm.
Move campus printing to the cloud and reduce the day-to-day maintenance burden. Have fewer patches, fewer queue mysteries, and fewer "it broke overnight" surprises.
One Experience Across Campus
Support the real education device mix - Chromebooks, MacBooks, Windows laptops, tablets, and phones - across libraries, labs, dorms, and shared printers without special steps per department or "this printer only works on that OS."
Permissions That Actually Make Sense
Tie printer visibility and access to identity and groups, so students, staff, faculty, and researchers see the right printers by role, building, and department - all without constant manual adjustments.
Temporary Access, Without Temporary Chaos
Support guest lecturers, visiting scholars, events, and short-term programs with controlled access that doesn't create recurring IT work or one-off setups.
Confidential Pages Stay With The Right Person
Reduce tray exposure in busy shared spaces. Pull Printing helps ensure jobs only release when the user authenticates at the printer with their school ID, helping protect exams, registrar documents, and sensitive student records.
Visibility Finance Can Actually Use
Understand usage across departments and locations, support quotas and accountability, and make it easier for busier and finance teams to track print spend without turning IT into the print police.
Cost Recovery Without The Busywork
For campuses that charge students to print, ezeepCampus adds Self-Join onboarding and credit-based printing, so students and staff can self-serve while your institution keeps pricing and access under control.
How to Set Up Jamf Printing with ezeep
Connect Your Printers to ezeep
Use the ezeep Hub or Connector to register your printers with ezeep's cloud platform. Assign them to user groups and set any printing policies (page limits, color restrictions, Pull Printing) in the ezeep admin portal.
Deploy the ezeep Print App Through Jamf
In Jamf Pro, add the ezeep Print App as a managed app and push it to your target devices or Smart Groups. In Jamf School, assign the app to devices, users, or device groups. In Jamf Now, upload the app package and assign it to devices directly or through a Blueprint. For Self Service, make the app available for users to install on demand.
Push Managed Configurations
Configure Apple managed app settings through Jamf to assign printers, set default print preferences (duplex, B&W, paper size), and control which printers each user or group can see. Settings are pushed silently. Users open the app and their printers are ready.
Why AirPrint Isn't Enough for Managed Apple Fleets
AirPrint requires same-network proximity, Bonjour/mDNS discovery that doesn't cross subnets, and compatible printers. In enterprise environments with segmented networks, branch offices, and mixed hardware, that covers a fraction of the fleet. It also gives IT no central control over which printers users see or what settings they use.
ezeep routes jobs through the cloud, so network topology doesn't matter. Any printer works, and IT manages everything from one console.
Documentation and Support
For Jamf Pro, Jamf School, and Jamf Now deployment, managed configurations, and Blueprint setup, visit the ezeep Knowledge Base. Our guides cover step-by-step instructions for all three Jamf products.
If you're managing iOS and Android devices through another EMM platform (Cortado, Workspace ONE, Sophos, or others), ezeep supports managed configurations across all major providers.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the ezeep integration with Jamf work?
IT admins deploy the ezeep Print App to managed Apple devices through Jamf Pro, Jamf School, or Jamf Now. The app is pushed like any other managed application: per-device, through Smart Groups, or via Blueprints. Managed configurations push printer assignments and print settings (duplex, color, paper size) to each device silently. Users open the app and their printers are ready.
Does ezeep replace AirPrint on managed Apple devices?
ezeep removes the dependency on AirPrint. With AirPrint, the printer must be on the same local network and support the protocol, and IT has no central control over assignments or settings. ezeep routes jobs through the cloud so Apple devices can reach any printer regardless of network, location, or protocol. If the printer is connected to ezeep through the Hub or Connector, any Mac, iPhone, or iPad can print to it.
What happens when a macOS update breaks printer drivers?
It doesn't affect ezeep. Print jobs are rendered in the cloud using manufacturer drivers hosted on ezeep's infrastructure, so there are no drivers installed on the Mac itself. macOS updates won't break printing, and IT doesn't need to repackage or redeploy drivers after an OS upgrade. This eliminates the most common cause of post-update print failures on Apple devices.
Can I control print settings and printer assignments through Jamf?
Yes. Using Apple's managed app configuration framework, IT admins push printer assignments, default paper size, color or black-and-white restrictions, duplex settings, and Pull Printing policies through Jamf. Configurations are applied silently and can be updated anytime without user involvement or physical access to the device.
Does ezeep work with MDM platforms other than Jamf?
Yes. The ezeep Print App supports managed configurations across all major EMM/MDM platforms, including Jamf Pro, Jamf School, Jamf Now, Cortado, Workspace ONE (AirWatch), Sophos, and others. The same managed configuration keys work across platforms, so the setup process is consistent regardless of which MDM you use.
