It was a piece of Anti-virus software that stopped my copy being in the start-up file - possibly AVG. I now load it at start-up, but that's only
about once a week.

I had this problem a while back after a Win 10 update.

So Windows side in Run (Spyglass) I put (Sans quotes)

"%appdata%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup"

And into that directory (Folder) I put a "Uniprint.exe" Shortcut.

No problem since, even after a lot of Win 10 updates.

There are probably other ways, but that was the one that stuck.

I would agree that after a recent update to Win 10 Uniserver is a little
odd. On my win 10 machine, which is brand new, with the latest version of
10, Uniprint runs nearly every time on startup. I have it set up so that
the miniature icon appears on the icon bar on the right when it is
running. However when I attempt to print for the first time, I get an
error message from the Risc side, an ARMX6 that says something like the PC

is not connected or Uniserver is not running. What normally cures this is running the full Uniserver application on the ARMX6 and selecting
Uniprint.

When this repopulates with list of printers, so yes it can see the PC
side, reselect the default printer which will be already highlighted, and
then clicking apply, everything then normally works ok. On the odd
occasion I also have to reboot the PC and then do the uniserver reselect.
NB if you get a network timeout error, you will normally have to reboot
the Win PC as if you check Uniprint you will normally find it thinks it is

receiving data, and if you try to cancel it says it will cancel at the end

of the page, but since it does not receive anymore data it will not clear,

so a reboot is the only option, or use of the Task Manager to kill
Uniprint, followed by a manual running of Uniprint.

Works OK here . Win 10 Home 64 bit 21H1

Well not with Win 10 Pro 64 bit 21H2 but the problems actually started
with 21H1 plus an update or two on my previous machine which was Win 10
Home 64, and were also present when I changed to a new machine which for
some reason had not installed as 21H2 so started out at a similar update
state as the machine it replaced. So it may be a 21H1 update that is not
yet present on your machine. Half the updates are for a while on request,
but then they suddenly load without you asking.

I contacted Ian, however at at present he is having personnel difficulties
and cannot look at software problems.

Andrew of RComp etc is currently "on holiday" so I managed to contact him
in a roundabout way, and he said if everyone who is having trouble with Uniprint please email him. Please supply details of how the problem
manifests itself (may be different for different set ups) and full details
of both the Riscos machine and the Windows setup, that obviously includes
the current build/update statuses.

Andrew will then look into it after Christmas.
