I would like to import/sync users from multiple groups or Organization Units. Is this possible?

PaperCut’s default user import configuration is to import all users from the selected domain. This is appropriate for most, however some organizations may wish to import a subset of users for various reasons. PaperCut can be configured to import a subset of users by selecting a group of users. A group may be a domain-level group, or in Active Director may also be a Organizational Unit (prefixed by OU: in PaperCut NG's group list).

A common question we get is, “How do I import users from multiple Groups?” PaperCut is designed to import/sync users from a single source only. It is not possible to import users from multiple sources such as two or mores groups. To import a subset of users, you’ll need to ensure that there is a single groups that contains all required users.

Users running Windows Active Directory however can import users from multiple groups by taking advantage of nested groups. PaperCut NG has native Active Directory integration allowing administrators to define groups by nesting other groups. To import users from multiple groups:
