"Worksheet","Distinguish printer address changes from discovery problems","Evidence status","Your configuration"
"Purpose","Compare the device’s current network information with the queue’s destination. A queue pointing at an old address and a discovery failure are different observations.","Proposed workflow",""
"Check","Question to record","Decision","Your observation"
"Device status","Current local connection","Establishes device-side state",""
"Queue destination","Where this client sends jobs","Can be stale or duplicated",""
"Discovery","How the app finds a device","Separate from job delivery",""
"Example","A fictional queue uses an old destination ending in .40 while the device’s current status shows .55. That mismatch is actionable evidence, but not authorization to reuse an arbitrary address. Correct the queue or network configuration using the relevant instructions and network owner’s policy.","Illustrative; not a measured product result",""
