Allowed Domains for Printing

Supported in:

Kiosk Pro Enterprise

Define a list of sites/pages where the app should show the print icon in the Navigation Bar and/or allow JavaScript print requests. Printing will not be available on sites/pages that are not included in this list.

Links are defined in the same way as the main Allowed Domains setting, where you can find examples.

How to add URLs

  1. Select 'Allowed Domains for Printing' from the app settings menu.
  2. Tap 'Edit' in the top navigation bar.
  3. Tap the plus icon (+) in the bottom navigation bar.
  4. Enter a URL and tap 'return'.

You can edit the URL again by tapping it. Touching the circle to the left of a URL will select it, allowing you to duplicate it or delete it. You can reorder URLs in the list by touching the list icon on the right of the URL and dragging up or down. You can also select or deselect all URLs.

If you select 'View' and touch a URL, Kiosk Pro will show you the components making up the URL:

If the allowed domains list is left blank, no restrictions will be placed on printing.

If you are limiting at the domain level, it is not necessary to prefix the domain name with http:// or www, Kiosk Pro is only interested in the domain name itself.

URL format examples

example.com in the list would allow access to:

  • http://www.example.com
  • http://www.example.com/index.html (or any other page or folder following /)
  • https://www.example.com
  • http://example.com
  • http://mobile.example.com

It is also possible to limit Kiosk Pro to specific prefix subdomains, so mobile.example.com in the list would allow access to:

  • http://mobile.example.com

and would not allow access to:

  • http://www.example.com
  • http://example.com

Wildcards

You can use wildcards (*) to stand in for certain parts of a URL. For example, *.edu would allow any web address on a .edu domain (like http://www.example.edu).

Limiting to a folder or single page

You can also limit to a folder or individual page level. When limiting in these situations, you must include the full web address including http:// or https:// and wildcards if necessary.

http://www.example.com/subfolder/* in the list would allow access to:

  • http://www.example.com/subfolder/
  • http://www.example.com/subfolder/page.html (or any other page or folder following /)

and would not allow access to:

  • http://www.example.com/subfolder2/

http://www.example.com/page.html in the list would allow access to:

  • http://www.example.com/page.html

and would not allow access to:

  • http://www.example.com/page2.html
  • https://www.example.com/page.html
