    Cannot Print over Wifi in Windows 10


    I have run into this problem with more than one laptop. I have an ASUS gaming laptop and a Xerox ColorQube at home. Over the WiFi, my laptop can see our printer. Heck, I can even print to it with no problems IF I am hardwired into our network. But if I try to print over the WiFi, it will not print. Sometimes, I can reboot my laptop and then it will print half the document (if it's several pages).

    I work in IT and have upgraded several people to Windows 10, and any of them with laptops trying to print to a networked printer cannot print over the WiFi. Again, their laptop will detect the printer, but it simply will not print. I have not tried any of these other laptops over an Ethernet cable, though.

    Yes, I have installed the latest printer drivers in all of these instances from the printers' manufacturers' websites.

    Yes, I have "troubleshoot" the printer in question to no avail.

    What else can I try?

    :)

    Fax and Scan Won't Recognize External Printer/Fax/Scanner

    The printer is set up as a shared network printer over WiFi, and all computers on the network can access it for printing and scanning. Apparently it is only Fax and Scan that cannot recognize it.

    Cannot Print over Wifi to Network Printers

    We do not have a Network administrator, I am the best thing in terms of an IT guy.

    The issue also seems to be with my computer not network related since others can still print.

    Cannot Print over Wifi in Windows 10

    I would check the Port assigned and switch it to TCPIP if needed , I have found the WSD Port does not always work but seems to be better in Win10 than it was in Win7

    I assume you re-ran the Printer Installer after the upgrade ?

    I know Canon released an update for Win10 after the Win10 November Update (1511) but not sure that helps you. With Canon it also downloads a ???? widget? from windows update
