Title: Wirelessly printing from George
Post by: richard connett on January 31, 2019, 02:09:55 pm

Afternoon everyone
Does anybody else out there have trouble printing wirelessly from George? I can print everything else without a cable , new printer, new windows tab.
It’s ok when I wire it in , but It’s annoying the hell out of me!! Just comes up with printing error couldn’t print
I tried asking support but Paul couldn’t solve the problem
Just as I was saying I didn’t need any other round software!!

It's your internet setting or bluetooth not activating on printer with pc

Maybe it's your firewall permissions.

Using mcafee by any chance?

Yeah I’ve tried the firewall , internet settings, network settings etc etc bloody doing my head in!
I wondered if anybody else was experiencing the same thing because I’m being told by support it’s nothing to do with the George programme. Even though it’s only George that I can’t print wirelessly from  . Printing from anything else is fine
More fiddling and then I’m ready to try another piece of software I think

If it works on wired then it must be security software related.   Try turning off windows defender and mcafee if you're using it.  See if it works.  It will narrow down the issue.

That was my thinking too. But I turned off the firewalls and don’t use a security software atm as it’s brand new surface tab
Amazing how much time you can waste on this sort of crap

Quick fix would be to print to screen and save the file.  Then print it from file

Yes that’s an option. I can plug it in as well I suppose but I hate it when things don’t work properly
Bit more mucking about with it then I’m off sledging !!
