Windows 10: Dell 1710 laser printer problem

Hello, I have a dell 1710 laser printer installed on my Lenovo helix. I had the Lenovo and an HP desktop connected
to the printer via a switch so that I could share the printer. I was not using the HP desktop so I removed the switch and connected the Lenovo directly. It has not worked since.
I have the disk that came with the dell 1710 but windows 10 is not able to install from that disk (too old I expect).
I have tried various methods to install the driver but without success.
when I go to settings, devices, it does show the dell laser printer 1710 and below it is Default, error.
when I print a test page it appears in the dialog box but status is blank and it fails to print.
when I go to the device manager there are no printers showing.
any thoughts on what I am doing wrong?

Unable to print on Windows 10 using Samsung ML 1710 Laser printer

The driver is at:

http://www.samsung.com/hk_en/support/model/ML-1710

at left, click : "Driver installation", the driver is at the bottom

when the driver is installed, choose ML-1710 in the printer list.

It works for me Win10 64bits

 

Unable to print on Windows 10 using Samsung ML 1710 Laser printer

*Original Title: Patrick

My Windows 10 upgrade caused the loss of print capability on my Samsung ML 1710 Laser printer. Its not the Printer because it work fine when I use my Laptop (haven't got this on to Windows 10 yet). Any thoughts. I know the Samsung is old but it works
fine. My other printer, a HP 6600 works OK.

Dell 1100 Personal Laser Printer driver compatibility with Windows 10

I am trying to use an older Dell 1100 Personal Laser Printer with Dell laptop running Windows 10. Dell has a driver:

File Name: DELL_PERSONAL-LASER-1100_A06_R247720.exe which is supposed to work with 32-bit Vista per the Dell website. I tried to install the driver on my Windows 10 laptop in Compatibility mode, but the file is reported to be incompatible.

Any suggestion on how to solve the problem (without just buying another printer!)

Thanks!
