OK, when i first got the Printopia, it worked great on my Samsung ML-1600 printer. Then once i upgraded a version of Big Sur i lost that connection and it has to returned. I wrote to Printopia on their contact helpdesk about 2 months ago, and i have not heard from them . Please have the courtesy to reply to our mails . Thanks

After iOS 17 (even 17.1) our 3.000 devices can't find any of the 87 printerns we have in Printopia. We stared updating Printopia to 3.0.22 and updating it to 3.0.23 didn't help either. All devices running 16.x and older are not having any problems. Wonder if the problem is in Printopia or iOS. Sent a mail to the support for Printopia but never got any answer/feedback. :(

I used to use it and loved it. But since updating to Sonoma I cannot get it to install. It goes as far as "starting the printopia service.." then comes back with "install failed Invalid response from server".

Keep trying to re-install it after reformatting my iMac and keep getting "The Printopia service is no longer running. Re-install Printopia service". Keeps happening. Have send the developer many emails, and also via Twitter since mid-December, and I am ignored. Pathetic.
