Wepa - Windows computer failing to upload file when printing

Modified on: Fri, Nov 20 2020 9:27 AM

  • On Windows computer specifically, when you are trying to print from applications (Word, web browser, Acrobat, etc)...
  • During the print process, if Wepa fails to upload your print job (PDF or other file types), the first troubleshooting step is to install VC++ 2017 or greater.
  • The download link to specific version that may resolve this issue is:  https://aka.ms/vs/16/release/vc_redist.x86.exe
  • After downloading, run VC_redist.x86.exe AND RESTART your computer after install.
  • Try printing again.
If you continue having problems, please contact the HelpDesk at helpdesk@ewu.edu or 359-2247 or Sutton Hall main entrance walk-up service.
