Create a New Printer Group
To create a new printer group:
In the Printers tab of the Groups screen, click Create group. The Group details page of the Create printer group wizard appears.
Enter the following information about the group:
Group name: A unique name for the group.
Description: Optional. A short description of the group.
If you want to create group rules that WXP uses to automatically move newly onboarded printers into the group, check the "Add group rules to automatically assign ungrouped printers to this group" option.
If you uncheck this setting, a static group is created, so you’ll need to manually add printers to it. In this case, skip to Step 9 to complete the group creation.
Click Next. The Group rules page appears.
Define a group rule by entering the following details:
Property: An identifying property for the printer.
Operator: Select one of Contains, Equals, Starts with, or Not equal.
Value: A value corresponding to the property.
To add additional rules, click +Add another rule, then repeat Step 5. You can add up to five rules for a group.
7. Optionally, click Calculate to see the number of currently ungrouped printers that match your rule set.
8. Click Next. The Review page appears.
9. Review the Group details, then click Create group. The group is added to the Groups list.
