Yes - message could be true.
Not every software / application supports printing every file / document type.
Depending on the device you are using, the document, its location, your Operating System / version,
You might not have the type of software / application installed that is necessary to support the print job.
For example,
- HP Smart - Windows - supports PDF and Photos / Images - but not Word or other Office style documents.
- Depending on the device AND the Operating System, the software / application might not be supported. This usually results in a "device not supported" error message but the underlying cause can impact the message that you see.
