• Enable mobile print

  Select this to allow printing from iOS/iPadOS phones and tablets to mobile print enabled Printix print queues. Only available if Enable mobile print is selected on the Settings page's Mobile print tab. Printix Client broadcasts these print queues as AirPrint printers. To do the broadcast, Printix Client for Windows will automatically install Apple's Bonjour Print Services for Windows (2.5 MB). No additional software is required for Printix Client for Mac (Bonjour is part of macOS). Print queues that have Enable mobile print selected will be broadcast as AirPrint printers on iOS/iPadOS phones and tablets as follows:

  • A print queue will be broadcast on the printer's network if the network has Enable mobile print selected.

  • A print queue, that has Via the cloud selected, will be broadcast on all networks that have Enable mobile print selected.

  • A Printix Anywhere print queue will be broadcast on all networks that have Enable mobile print selected.

  • Mobile-printed Print Anywhere documents can, unless the printer's QR code or NFC tag is scanned, be released only to printers that have a print queue with Via the cloud selected.

• Network type

  Do NOT select Home office manually. Adding home office groups will select this for relevant networks. Only clear Home office if you want to treat the network as a Company network.
