Configuring
AirPrint
 and
AirPlay
 profiles for
iOS
 devices

AirPrint
 profiles can help users find printers that support
AirPrint
, are accessible to them, and for which they have the required permissions. In situations where protocols such as
Bonjour
 can't discover
AirPrint
 enabled printers on another subnetwork,
AirPrint
 profiles aid in specifying where resources are located. You can assign
AirPrint
 profiles to
iOS
 and
iPadOS
 devices so that users don’t have to configure printers manually.
AirPlay
 is a feature that lets you display photos or stream music and video to compatible
AirPlay
 devices such as
Apple
TV, AirPort Express, or
AirPlay
 enabled speakers.
With an
AirPlay
 profile you can specify which
AirPlay
 devices
iOS
 and
iPadOS
 users can connect to. The
AirPlay
 profile has two options:
  • If your organization's
    AirPlay
     devices are password protected, you can specify device passwords for allowed destination devices so that
    iOS
     and
    iPadOS
     device users are able to connect without knowing the password.
  • For supervised devices, you can restrict which
    AirPlay
     devices users can connect to by specifying a list of allowed
    AirPlay
     devices for supervised devices. Supervised devices can connect only to the
    AirPlay
     devices specified in the list. If you don't create a list, supervised devices can connect to any
    AirPlay
     device.
