Windows printing: Universal Print is built into Windows and works without extra endpoint software or printer drivers on supported Windows versions.
macOS printing: Users can print from macOS applications with native printing support after installing the Universal Print app.
Web printing: Universal Print is available in OneDrive and Excel on the web, where users can select a printer without setup or installation.
