Recently I have been tasked with setting up Universal in our company. In order to do this I am first making a small scale test. My laptop currently acts as the Universal Print Connector for one of the printers I'll be using in my test. I've succesfully registered the printer into Azure at Universal Print. And my Universal Print service is running. I've also shared the print as a shared printer. I can even add the share of this printer onto my laptop as a cloud printer. However when I try to print a test file. It fails to do so. It fails after 10 seconds. when i look at the job list for the printer, I see that it registers the job as cancelled with an error code. However I couldnt find the specific error code among the documentation of common occuring errors:
-2146232969

I can provide more information if its needed. But this seems to be my current situation

    I would not be using the same machine as both server and client. I'm guessing you see event 372 with the rendering failure, correct? Are you sending jobs to physical hardware or a fake printer like print to PDF?

    Also, make sure your user in Azure has been assigned a Universal Print license. Thanks
