unable to find the Shared Print Queue in the app

[elPiotr]

Hello

I saw in the Sprocket Plus manual a mention of "Shared Print Queue" feature

but I am unable to find this function in either iOS or Android app ...

Maybe this function had been removed and the manual is outdated ?

@elPiotr

A warm welcome to HP Forums!This is a great place to get support, find answers and tips to your technical queries.

The Print Queue on HP Sprocket App allows you to save photos to print later and send consecutive prints to your device, you can queue photos offline for future printing and also send prints to your HP Sprocket Printer while on the go. I believe we can access the Print Queue from the Main Menu of the HP Sprocket app or from the print preview screen. Tap on the light grey bar under your photo to view prints in the queue. You may refer to page 9 on this document.

but in the App is not present !

I attach a screenshot of that manual page.

Hi,

I understand you are looking to use shared print queue with Sprocket Plus. This feature is only available on the latest 2nd edition Sprocket printer. The Sprocket Plus only supports one printer connection.

Hi and thank you for the reply

I am sorry if I may sound rude but, have you spent at lest 1 minute opening the link

and discovering that this is the Sprocket Plus manual ??

Is NOT the 2nd edition Sprocket manual .... and there IS the Shared Print Queue on manual !!!

So the Shared Print Queue should be available also on Sprocket Plus OR the Sprocket Plus manual is totally wrong !!

Hello,

I have sent an escalation to get the manual updated. The only printer that supports a BLE connection is latest Sprocket 200 printer. The Sprocket Plus bluetooth does not support this functionality. We apologize for any confusion. 

[elPiotr]

With all due respect, from what I read and understand on the manual,

the Shared Print Queue should be something supported by the app, not by the printer.

Should be something that the app Host ( in the manual: Host Shared Print Queue ) on the only device that actually connect to the sprocket

then other guest use the app feature Join ( in the manual: Join Shared Print Queue ) to connect to sprocket app hosting the queue ( I assume this is done via bluetooth or wireless )

So actually is only one device that actually connect to the sprocket printer, the other that join the queue print through the host app.

Maybe this feature was present in the first release of the app ( the one that the manual refers to )

and maybe was lately removed without updating the manual ...

Does this sound plausible ?

Hello,

You are correct. This feature is no longer available via the app. The only printer currently supporting shared printer queue is the Sprocket 200. 

[elPiotr]

That is a pity and maybe a fraud !

Because I have read the manual when I had to choose the printer and I've choose the Sprocket Plus also because of the Shared Print Queue ... and now I discover that something that was advertized in the manual is not true !

I think I will send back the printer ...

this way of doing business is really unfair and in my opinion a big fall of fame for a big brand like was HP
