Print preview sticky settings

Computer and userIntune-readyPrintStickySettings

Supported on Microsoft Edge version 98, Windows 7 or later

What it does

Specifies whether print preview should apply last used settings for Microsoft Edge PDF and webpages. If you set this policy to 'EnableAll' or don't configure it, Microsoft Edge applies the last used print preview settings for both PDF and webpages. If you set this policy to 'DisableAll', Microsoft Edge doesn't apply the last used print preview settings for both PDF and webpages. If you set this policy to 'DisablePdf', Microsoft Edge doesn't apply the last used print preview settings for PDF printing and retains it for webpages. If you set this policy to 'DisableWebpage', Microsoft Edge doesn't apply the last used print preview settings for webpage printing and retain it for PDF. This policy is only available if you enable or don't configure the 'PrintingEnabled' (Enable printing) policy. Policy options mapping: * EnableAll (0) = Enable sticky settings for PDF and Webpages * DisableAll (1) = Disable sticky settings for PDF and Webpages * DisablePdf (2) = Disable sticky settings for PDF * DisableWebpage (3) = Disable sticky settings for Webpages Use the preceding information when configuring this policy.
