    I installed windows 10. Printer will not work.

    May need to install printer drivers. When I installed 10 and went into Devices - printers & scanners my printer was already being displayed. Yours is obviously not - check In windows 10 under Settings - Devices - Add a printer or scanner. Also at the
    bottom of that page under Related settings is Devices and printers that takes you to where your printer will be marked as default. The Device Manager will display your printer recognized by windows10.

    Looks like Ghosts of DLNA devices. Start by taking offline any DLNA capable gear, reboot the Gateway and also clear its IP Table.

    Also clear out those ghosts from Devices and Printers.

    For some reason this started in Windows 7, when Microsoft started to play games with DLNA and media Shares.
