Printer isn´t working after latest update.

After the latest update from Windows, my Canon Pixma ip6600 printer isnt working. In Device Manager it shows up as working properly but when I go to print it isn´t listed as an option in any programs. Troubleshoot suggests it´s a USB 2 printer on a USB
3 port and that that´s the problem but that cant be since it worked fine before the update. I´ve tried to uninstall and plug it back in but that doesn´t work either.

 

How to fix the "That verification method isn't working right now. Please try another method" screen.

Hi



Welcome to Microsoft community.

The message "That verification method isn't working right now. Please try another method" usually indicates that the verification process via phone number is temporarily unavailable or that there's an issue with the phone number you're trying to use. The fact that it says "Blocked" on the tab might mean that the system has flagged your attempt as unusual activity and is preventing changes to your verification settings as a security measure.

Here's what you can try to resolve this issue:

1. Use a Different Verification Method:
   
   • If you have an alternative verification method set up, such as a secondary email address or security questions, try using that method instead.
     
2. Clear Browser Cache and Cookies:
   
   • Sometimes, clearing your browser's cache and cookies can resolve these issues. After clearing them, try the verification process again.
     
   • Disclaimer: Your browser automatically saves temporary internet files to help pages load faster. Clearing this cache will sometimes fix website issues. Please back up all your personal files first, such as Favorites, to ensure you do not lose data.
     
3. Try a Different Browser or Incognito Mode:
   
   • There might be an issue with your browser. Try using the Edge browser then opening an incognito/private browsing window and attempt the process again.
     
4. Check the Phone Number:
   
   • Ensure that the phone number you are trying to use isn't already associated with another account. Some services do not allow a phone number to be linked to multiple accounts.
     
5. Account Recovery Options:
   
   • Use the account recovery options.
