Frequently asked questions

Why can’t I add or delete a client printer when a backup printer functions as a master printer?

You can delete or add a client printer only when the master printer is online.

Can I remove a client printer even if the master printer is offline and reassign it to its new master printer?

Yes. Do the following:

  1. Reinstall the application from the client printer.
