… this time the following service components were affected:
Strange how this seems to become a more and more a recurring problem for BL, and how BL seems to be unable to contain and adequately manage such "trivial matters ", such as basic BCP and DRP… hmm… wondering what other sower tasting, unplesant surprises might BL offer us before deciding to alow for user wireless printing without having to go through their unreliable cloud (de)services…
I get your frustration, but there is not some big conspiracy to screw people out of services, friend.
It’s an outage, they happen. It was unplanned.
It is slowly coming back and might go down again if they run into issues.
Just be patient.
Thing is, it’s not the first one, and as of late (summer time) seems to be a recurring problem.
I’d imagine the more users they have the more chances for stuff to go wrong there are. More people are buying into BL products because they’re actually good for their price.
Which would be a good reason for BL to reconsider its approach and allow users to print through their own wireless network, without having to go through their cloud first.
You can already do this with “LAN only” mode.
yes, but it’s limited, as you cannot use a number of existing options under LAN only.
Can you list the options that do not function in LAN only mode?
I really don’t see how any of those are limiting the function of the printer? Isn’t the whole purpose for LAN mode that the printer shouldn’t be accessible outside of the local network?
It does matter to me. For the money I’ve spent, I want to be able to make use of all existing features and functions, without any constraints.
And to avoid any unnecessary back and forth arguments, let’s just agree … to disagree.
Spaghetti detection is not “guaranteed” in any mode.
From the link you provided:
The X1 series has the capability to detect failures/spaghetti based on the processing power it has. This system uses a machine-learning algorithm and all the data processing is done locally.
When the printer is used in LAN mode, the printer behaves just like when it is not connected to the internet and uses local processing to provide this feature.
The detection algorithm is updated with the firmware, which can be done via download to an SDcard.
