Q: My print job is not printing at the printer I selected?
A: : First, check the print queue to ensure your job is next in line. If it’s not in the queue and there’s no printout, it’s possible someone may have taken your document by mistake.
Q: Why does my computer say the printer is offline when I try to print?
A: The computer shows the printer as offline because all print jobs are routed through the SoN SecurePrint system. To print, send your job to the SoN SecurePrint device. Then, simply tap your Husky card on any designated copier to retrieve your print job.
