Diagnostics Checklist Before Filing a Report

To help us resolve your issue quickly, please verify the following items on your Windows print host machine:

  • Verify .NET 8: Run dotnet --list-runtimes in PowerShell to confirm Microsoft.NETCore.App 8.0+ is installed.
  • Windows Print Spooler Service: Ensure the service Spooler is set to Running in Windows Services.
  • Same Subnet Wi-Fi Check: Ensure your mobile device and Windows PC are connected to the same Wi-Fi router (avoid Guest Wi-Fi which isolates client devices).
  • Server Console Output: Check the terminal logs or system tray notifications for any TLS handshake or driver exceptions.
