Can't select AirPrint Printer after iOS 17 Update

When I try to print the no printer selected is displayed, when I select the printer it starts to connect but the no printer selected comes back. There is a printer there and has worked previously, is this something because of an update?


There is a printer there but it does not pick it up, it was fine last week. Is this because of an update?

I read on another string that Norton's VPN may be the issue, blocking AirPrint on iPhone with IOS 17. I not only had to turn off the VPN, but also reboot the iPhone afterwards. Now able to AirPrint.


Notably, the Norton VPN does not block wireless printing from Windows laptop. :-(

I cannot print from my 1phone 15 on any router it reads the printers but when I push print it reverts to no printer selected. I have shut off and restarted the router, computer printer and IPhone and reset the network connnections. Same problem I was going to reinstall the latest update but I don’t have the option to delete it. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

If it’s any consolation, you’re not alone. This last weekend, my phone showed an auto update coming, seemingly nothing out of the ordinary. I let it do its thing, as usual. Monday comes and I try to do a simple (remember how easy “simple” used to be?) type and print. Won’t connect to the printer any more, and so far the things that worked for others isn’t working on my not-new-but-otherwise-splendid HP Envy 5540. It’s beyond frustrating for non-tech-advantaged folks to have to spend hours trying to figure it out.

Thank heavens for pen and paper.

I do not want to update my Epson firmware yet because it is letting me use knock off printer cartridges. Once I switch to Epson cartridges I will update the firmware on the printer. I did get Epson Smart Panel to work on my iPhone and now I can print using that app rather than air printer which stopped working with the new software upgrade. That will get me by for now. Very annoying situation. And my work required me to do the software upgrade.
