Troubleshooting
-
If the printer is asleep, it may take a few minutes for it to wake up and print the job and may appear non-responsive at first. You can wake the printer up before trying to print by pressing the power button.
-
If the printer was just turned on or restarted, it may take a few minutes before it can communicate with the app. If you get a printer is offline error message, wait a minute and try again (or try a different printer).
-
As always, if printing using My Print Center or the Pharos Print App is not working, try printing directly from a computer with OHIO pay-to-print queues installed and releasing via card swipe.
