Identified - We have some more information on this issue.
It is confirmed that an overnight windows update has caused this behaviour, and when attempting to print from any application (not just Titan, even a Windows Test Page is affected), then the print queue remains empty and nothing prints.
We are actively seeking urgent support from Microsoft and Zebra with regard to this issue. The steps provided in the earlier message on this page do seem to resolve the issue.
We will provide a further update shortly

Investigating - We are investigating an issue where print jobs from Titan get "stuck" in the windows print queue and do not print. This appears to relate to the Zebra update 10.6.14.28216, that was included in the Windows Update that ran overnight on 8/5.
We have found that the following steps will reactivate printing:
1. On your PC, click the Start Menu or press the Windows key and type "Services" and press Enter/click it 2. Locate Print Spooler in the list, right click and select Restart 3. When the print spooler has restarted, restart your computer 4. When the PC restarts, printing operations appear to resume
We are still investigating this issue and will provide a further update when we have more information.

Scheduled -
We have received a notification from the NHS Spine team advising of some maintenance with the CIS platform on Saturday.
This should only affect smartcard operations such as renewal, unlock and similar activities. Core Titan activity should be unaffected. Note from the NHS:
"We are carrying out an upgrade to the Care Identity Service (CIS) on Saturday 10 May starting at 09:00 and finishing at 18:00.
The Care Identity Management (CIM) application will be unavailable throughout the upgrade period. Therefore during this time it will not be possible to perform user or position management, or smartcard operations such as issuance, cancellation, or renewal.
Additionally, the self-service smartcard unlock and Apply for Care ID services may also be unavailable.
CIS1 and CIS2 authentications and directory-based connections to CIS will be unaffected, and we are confident there will be no impact to customers other than the unavailability mentioned above."
The Titan support team will be monitoring the situation on Saturday to keep an eye on the impact of the maintenance window.
