error when printing to WSD (Web Services Device) printer
I have a Brother Colour laser printer HL-3170CDW and it is online via its ethernet interface. Windows has set it up with two definitions. One is as a Web Services Device and the other is a Standard TCP/IP Port.
I have a Word DOCX document which prints OK with the TCP/IP printer setup but fails with an undefined error on the WSD setup. All I can get is a message saying the printer is in an error state. It appears that the document fails even before it gets presented to the printer. When it fails there is no indications of any response frrom the printer. The document is attached in case of any interest.
This is not a big deal since the printer still works but I'm not sure what a WSD definition is and why it fails.
