A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I get you. I have many similar stories. Where things should have been simple, a 4 steps process. And yet.

Last time was the printer no longer working from my mom's iPhone. It's supposed to detect the printer automatically when on the same network, it no longer did. And the stored/"remembered" entry did not work either.

After many troubleshoting steps, I gave up, sent the document to another computer and printed from there. So, clearly, the printer worked (for once) and accepted commands from the LAN.
