If you are using the Konica Minolta app on the printer then you do not need Microsoft's connector and there is no need for the driver!- apali1976Feb 26, 2024Copper ContributorHello Saurabh, Based on your experience: Konica Minolta app used on the Printer > onboarded to tenant Universal Print do you have working experience with stapler unit? I know that basic printing functions, like mono / color or resolution can be configured, but extras, like stapler / punching unit is still not confirmed in Universal Print.
Prior thanks, if you can share some.

Thanks bouyaka. We appreciate your persistence with the solution and making it work.
Universal Print is trying to shift industry to "driverless" printing and use PWG's IPP standard. We understand there are printers that are not yet ready. We are trying our best to support them via connector. Sometimes drivers provide information in a very customized way that may not be understood by connector. Our partners are working hard to make it work with their drivers :).
Hopefully you can help others in the community as you get experienced with using Universal Print 🙂- Saurabh_BansalJun 10, 2022

bouyaka - Konica Minolta recently launched an app that can be installed on the printer and this will altogether remove the need for connector (and issues with driver on the connector). You may want to give it a try if your printer supports it.
