  2. 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.

  3. Printer isn´t working after latest update.

    Managed to solve it... here´s how I did it just in case anyone else has the same problem...

    ->Settings

    ->Printers & scanners

    ->Add a printer or scanner

    ->The printer that I want isn´t listed

    ->Add a local printer or network printer with manual settings

    ->Use an existing port: USB001 (Virtual printer port for USB)

    ->Choose printer

    ->Use the driver that is currently installed

    ->Type printer name

    And done... =P

    My dell printer isn't working it says incompatible USB port.

    Installing generic printer usb port not showing

    I'm trying to install a tickets printer in Windows 10. When I select "The printer is not on the list" and try to select the port it only shows tcp and com ports (my lap is brand new and it only has usb ports) but there is not usb ports on the list.

    If I only plug the printer and turn it on, windows says that ot doesn't recognize it.

    I already try to install the printer with a driver that I found on the internet but it's the same problem, the instalation assitant shows 3 usb ports and it has the option of testing the ports, all 3 says not usb por found.

    I have a usb fan conected and it works, I haven't try another usb device yet.

    Some help please.
