Unavailable job information for users

Workstation is offline or disconnected

ETCD configuration

This feature needs properly configured and fully functional etcd and it needs to be enabled in YSoft SafeQ management interface. See Configuring etcd for failover support in Terminal Server for details.

With Client Based Print Roaming, when a user is printing job on the terminal, it may happen that he is unable to print because his workstation is not correctly connected to the network or is just turned off. Jobs spooled on the workstation cannot be transferred to the printer and Embedded terminal informs the user with the specific message.

Since it is not 100% reliable and connection could be restored during this process or just information about connection is not downloaded to the terminal, the user can try to print it anyway by tapping on Try to print button.

The message informs that spooled jobs are not accessible and user needs to ensure, that workstation is booted and operational or if it is correctly connected to the network.
