    All the Windows 10 USB drivers are up to date.

    The HP usb printer was working before the Canon WiFi printer was installed on the Windows 10 computer. The Canon WiFi printer connects via the gateway and doesn't connect directly to the Windows 10 computer.

    The HP usb printer works fine when attached to a Windows 7 PC.

    All of HP troubleshooting options eventually suggest that it's a Microsoft problem, the driver for the HP LaserJet 1018 is a Microsoft driver and can't be downloaded and installed from any HP source.


    Is there a solution?

    :)

  2. Canon printer wifi trouble

    yeah printers can be a bitch.i dont know if your on windows, or linux, or what else, but win 10 has many issues regarding printers, IME.
    A printer SHOULD be able to go into off mode, and Still be accessed by the devices that try to send print jobs to it, mine did on win7, but its been a pain in the ass since the windows 10 "downgrade".
    I recommend usb connecting if at all possible, it was the only way i got my HP to act "right", i tried wifi, usb to the the router, and finally usb to my main PC, the latter was the only permanent solution.the former being just a waste of time.

    good luck, and welcome to TPU, please fill out your "system specs", to further assist others in the future by saving time by avoiding questions.

  3. Canon printer wifi trouble

    Hey,

    I installed my canon pixma mg3210 with the newest driver and I choose wifi connection.

    Eveyrthing works fine until I turn off the printer then my laptop doesn't detect the printer anymore.
    Basically, the printer is offline.

    usb device not recognized (malfunction) - Printer

    Hope somebody can help a non-techy here.
    I have a canon IX4000 printer, and had been using it without problem. The next day (having touched nothing), I got a USB device not recognized warning, and that it has a malfunction (this is under Windows XP).

    I've tried the following:
    - deinstalling all USB drivers under device manager
    - system restore to several days prior, when I knew the printer was working
    - trying a different USB lead (tested the lead on another device, so know it works)
    - plugged lead into every other available USB port on the computer (front and back).
    - tried plugging it into another computer (comes up with the same malfunction warning)
    - deinstalled the printer drivers, downloaded and reinstalled them.

    Nothing I've tried works. I know the printer functions as I can start it up under service mode and print off test pages without problems, but my computer just won't have it. Could it be a hardware failure, and if not is there anything else I can try that isn't listed above?

    Really grateful to anyone who can reply. *Smile After installing Canon WiFi printer, HP usb printer can be found as a usb Other Device, but... :)
