Due to changes in network settings the link between Print Server and QuickPrint panel may break. When this happens QuickPrint shows a connection error message.


Parallels Desktop is prone to change host names by adding -2 at the end of them, which makes PrintServer URL different from the one that was correctly set up and thus connection fails.



To restore the connection click on the link shown as "here" in the error message in order to access the connection set up dialog. Once there, enter the PrintServer URL like this, IP:port or hostname.local:port (192.168.1.2:49090, printerPC.local:49091...)



The port number used by a Print Server process is found by clicking on the Log button in the Configuration dialogue, which is accessed by clicking on the cogwheel button in the main window.
