Windows 10: Installing V4 Printer Drivers

I am having an Issue resolving EventID An error occurred while configuring print queue 'Xerox AltaLink C8155 V4 PCL6'. Printer driver 'Xerox AltaLink C8155 V4 PCL6' may not be used in conjunction with a non-inbox port monitor. This is happening when trying to install V4 drivers

:)

 

Printer Driver problem (Konica Universal printer driver PCL v4)

Konica Universal Printer Driver PCL v.4) was installed in the print server (Windows 2019). Some Konica BizHub printers were added, which use that driver) and shared on the server.

We have Windows 11, 10 and 2022 computers attached to the shared print queue and the driver was changed by Windows to Microsoft Enhanced Point and Print Driver".

We have some printers / printer queue use Konica Universal Printer Driver PCL v2 and v3, however, the client Windows computer install the correct driver.

Two Windows 2022 servers tried to install V4 driver but failed with Error 5.

any suggestion is welcome.

Thanks

 

Zebra thermal printer KR203 being detected as unspecified device, not as printer.

We have multiple KIOSK systems connected to Zebra KR203 printer. The printer used to work with Windows 10 1909 update but with the security updates (20h2 or 21h1), printer stopped working.

We performed below steps to create a driver which can support Zebra KR203 printer. Please suggest if we are missing something.

• We setup a development machine to work on this issue and installed Visual Studio 2019 and Windows Driver Kit Version 10.0.19041.685.
  
• Uninstalled pre-installed Zebra printer driver.
  
• Created a new project of type “V4 printer driver” on VS2019.
  
• In the Create a V4 Print Driver Wizard, under Choose the driver rendering type:, selected V4 print driver with custom rendering filters (accepts XPS only). Kept other setup settings as default. After project is created, verified the necessary files after the creation of project as suggested by document. Followed the steps from the link: Build a basic v4 printer driver - Wind:type
  
• Configured the target machine as per “Configure the driver solution for debugging and deployment” steps provided. Result: Complete
  
• We are currently in “Build and deploy the driver” step of the link mentioned above. Result: Builds successfully but driver output states “please select a valid target machine for deployment from the project property page”.
  

NOTE:

One day the printer started giving prints from MS word (windows 10 20H2 version), which was not working earlier. We tried to test the printer on another system following the same steps, but when we again connected the printer back to development machine, it stopped working and now it is not being detected as a printer, rather being detected as an unspecified device. (with or without Zebra’s own drivers)
