    Can't install printer


    I have a brother 620CN

    On windows 10, it should install by plugging in the USB. It worked fine 2 weeks ago, and now when i plug it in, it doesn't show up, or it doesn't find the printer when i try to add it through the control panel.

    It only shows up like this.

    I've tried unplugging, turning off, etc. I'm not sure what to do.

  2. Canon printer MX452

    I was reading Community posts earlier and saw where several participants said when Windows upgraded to Windows 10 they deleted printer Canon MX452. That is the printer I have and I can't re-install it. Anyone have any answers to how I can add my printer
    back.. I can't afford a new one and there's nothing wrong with my printer.. Please HELP. SweetLady03

    I saw several posts about after windows installed Windows 10 that the CanonMX452 printer was uninstalled and couldn't be installed again. That's my printer and I can't get it installed again. Anyone have any HELP they can give me. I can't afford another

    I also know (If I remember correctly), in windows 7, it was a similar location for these files, but it was the 4 folder to delete the files from.

    whenever you can not complete a printer installation, you must delete these files to succeed in completing a printer driver and software install.

    Can't install printer

    ................... when i try to add it through the control panel..............................

    Did you do it this way ?
    Go to Programs and Features > find out if the printer is listed.
    If yes, uninstall it.
    If no, it is not listed, then exit Programs and Features.
    Then insert the printer's installation dvd and reinstall.

    Brother do not give you an installation DVD for windows 10.

    They say on their site that the drivers will automatically be installed when you plug in the USB, allowing you to print straight away.

    Which happened two weeks ago.

    However now when i plug it in via USB, it doesn't show up through word, etc. Nor does it show up in the Devices & Printers. It only shows up in device manager as shown in that picture.
