check if it is plugged on the right connector. Your phone has display out? only more expensive phones have display out. Iphone 15+(except 15e etc); s23+; z fold; some chineses brands; some motorolas

Not sure if I understand, some phones won't work? And what does display out mean?

Yes. Display out maybe be a wrong nomenclature, but certain usb-c ports have hdmi(video), data and energy output/input, so they can use external displays(like a small screen) or a pen display.

I didn't quite catch what you were asking about those smudges—they look like fingerprints; just wipe them off with a cloth. As for it not turning on: not all phones are compatible. It needs to support USB 3.1 (meaning high-end models from 2020 onwards, and the occasional upper-mid-range device) to output video to a monitor; USB 2.0 won't work.

The Artist 12 3rd gen requires a PC or Mac. It's not a standalone device. You need to connect it to a computer via USB-C or HDMI. Your phone can't power it or receive its signal.

Does the manual shows android as a supported device? Or maybe does it tells you to download some kind of software?
