We have OS settings turned off for students (for obvious reasons). Is there a way to allow them to add a home printer without opening up settings in general? Is there a way to whitelist the printer setting? We have the printer set to allow them to add printers, but without access to settings it's meaningless.
I know HP has a chrome extension that works pretty easily to be able to print to HP printers when on the same network. I remember using this a few times for parents during the pandemic. Haven't touched it a few years, but this is the link:
We block most of the settings using the allowlists but allow printers and other things by adding the "URL" (chrome://print, etc.), and then they have to know to type in the page needed. Kind of a pain, but it works.
