HP ePrint - Error on Printers email address - eprint server status good though

[RandoOnlineUser]

Hello,

We have an M203Dw that uses the ePrint and has been working up until a couple days ago.  Now jobs sent to the printer via the address are not working but i do receive an email saying it was received and should print shortly.   When checking the status on the printer the ePrint server status is good but the status for the Printers email address shows an error "Unable to handle the request.  Try again later".  I have searched the intergoogles and cannot find any mention of the error or the cause (come on HP, you programmed that error, would be nice if you acknowledged its existence and elaborated).  I have rebooted, updated firmware (Current firmware data code 20201023) and changed the printers email address to no avail.  Any help would be much appreciated!

@RandoOnlineUser, Welcome to HP Support Community!

If your HP ePrint job fails, confirm the network connection is functioning and check ePrint requirements.

1. Restart the printer.

2. Print a test page from a device on the same local network, and then respond to any messages that display.

3. Make sure the email subject line is filled out, your printer email address is correct, and you have less than ten compatible attachments.

   For more detailed steps, go to HP ePrint Job Does Not Print.

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.

@TEJ1602 - thanks

All the listed actions have been taken and no change to operation.  When sending test emails I am including only one attachment which is a text document with one sentence (no special characters, literally just says "this is a test") so not an issue with that.  When sending the email I get the usual auto response saying it will print soon but never does.  When checking the Eprint status the connection to eprint server is good just erroring on the email address check with that error message that i cannot find any further information on.  Network connection is good so really dont get it, is Eprint being discontinued and just no one was told about it?

Hi @TCI-Tom 

For the M476 model, I afraid this is expected, please find below support document:

I have the same problem, it worked perfectly before. I have checked the list of unsopported printers and mine (M102w) is not included. In the configuration webserver I can see that connection with Web Services is ok but Email address is not working:

Email is correctly processed by HP Web Services:

Printer is correctly set up in the network since I can print with Windows 10 driver.

Thanks in advance!

Firware updated. Problem solved.

I disabled auto update of firmware as it turned my printer into a paper weight by not recognizing the non HP cartridges.  So now, If I don't update the firmware I cannot use eprint, but if I update the firmware the cartridges are useless and I can't print at all.  This will be the last HP Printer and likely HP device I will ever buy.   I don't appreciate being help hostage by firmware updates.
