List of printers that are compatible
MicrosoftCarol Chisholm, have you tried clicking on some of the hardware manufacturer's names on the page and then gone to their portal? For example:
Lexmark has this link - Universal Print Ready Printers and Universal Print Compatible Printers
Canon has links - www.usa.canon.com/simplyadvanced (USA) and https://www.canon-europe.com/business-printers-and-faxes/imagerunner-advance-dx/ (EMEA).
Let us know if that helps.
Thanks
Saurabh
Saurabh_Bansal It's really a terminology issue. HP and Citrix and all sorts of other people have products called "Universal Print" or something similar. Since you don't brand as Office365 or Azure or Microsoft it is quite hard to identify. I will keep trying.
Also finding what firmware updates might make thinks compatible is not that easy.

Carol Chisholm Good feedback!
I hope the Canon and Lexmark links helped. Other manufacturers are yet to provide more specific details (as per my understanding :))
We have two Canon in function with universal printing. it works. don't use the "work around" software proposal. universal printing is just usuable with the right printer and the right compatible firmware. 🙂
OrangeOdi What good news, so you don't use the connector application? Can you tell me the models?
Most of the documentation seems to mention the connector but I'd like to not have any computers on all the time.
Saurabh_Bansal that's fine, sounds like I just need to be patient. Reminiscing I remember that one of the main things that drove Windows adoption (back in the days of Windows for Workgroups) was built in printer drivers and fonts.
And tell the branding people to put Azure or 365 in the product name, so Bing and Google can find it.
