    Bonjour on? IPP on? Check all your protocols. Can the Apple devices discover the printer?

        Back it up U917 and do a U21 factory restore. Join it to network on dhcp and try again

          Perhaps the network isn't setup correctly? If they aren't on the same network, even if you think they are, they won't be able to connect. They need to be on the same wireless network as the MFP.

              Do this and see if it works. If it does, restore everything except network and system. I had a 3012 that would not scan to email with SSL even though everything was set properly and this fixed it.
              If it still does not work setup your phone as a hotspot and connect the copier to your phone with wifi and see if you can see it. Btw you can only have 1 gateway on the machine so make sure you configure that properly if you want the copier to scan to email if your testing that. If DHCP is on you should be fine.

              I had a customer running Cisco AP's and they could ping, web browse the copier just fine. It would not print over wireless. Wired devices could print. Dunno what they changed but after months of arguing they finally fixed it.

              My old office, you could not airprint to a copier, bonjour was blocked. You can download bonjour browsers on your phone and computer to see if you can see the device.

              I had a 3552 in the office, my samsung phone could not print to it, my pixel would. PFM....

                Turn on Airprint on the MFP under printer setting in the Command Center. If all they are doing is printing, it is easier from Airprint anyway. Just make sure they are on the same network, to check open browser on the phone and input the IP of the MFP, if it doesn't find the printer, it is not the same network.

                      Did IPv6 get turned off? I find mobile printing works better with it on.

                          Is the machine hard wired?
                          Is the customer trying to print using wifi?
                          I have discovered that many new routers treat the hard wire network separate from the wifi network.
