Windows 10: my printer reverts to manual feed

I have a Brother printer (HL-L2360DW) connected via USB to the PC with Windows 10. This printer always reverts to manual feed. I tried to reset the Printer Preferences to Tray 1 but it didn’t help.

I also tried a lot to fix the issue, including changing the USB cord, removing and setting software again, using Windows Troubleshooter, updating the firmware for the printer etc.

Printer Preferences change to Manual Feed

Okidata printers C530 and/or C5400. Two different locations, two different computers, both running Windows 10x64 Professional.

If I go to the Devices & Printers control panel dialog, and select printer preferences, I can select the default tray to be Tray1, or automatic, and it will stay there UNTIL I run a program which needs to print from the Manual Feeder.

After I select the manual feeder in that program (from the printer setup dialog), the default for every single subsequent print job, from any program, will remain set to the manual feeder.

If the next program I print from needs to print from Tray 1, I need to change it manually in the printer setup dialog for that program. But the default remains the manual feeder. It doesn't change back to Tray 1.

The only way I have been able to reset the default to Tray 1 is by navigating back to the Printers and Devices control panel page, and changing the preferences there. Then the default will stay at Tray 1 until the next time I have to print from the manual
feeder. But that is time consuming and a pain.

This change in default tray preference, from tray 1 to manual, does NOT happen if I print an envelope from MS Word, but that is the only exception.

Is there any way to either

• Always have the default tray be Tray 1?
• Always have the default Tray be the last tray used (so that if I change the tray in a programs printer setup dialog to Tray 1, that will remain as the default?
• Failing the above, is there some script I could run from a desktop shortcut that would set the default tray back to Tray 1 after it gets messed up?

Thanks for any help.

 

N97 Homescreen feeds missing

Pilsner -



Naw you dont need pipes or anything...



1. Add your feed in the web browser Go to Web feeds > Add new feed.



2. once the feed is added you should see it in the list 'widgets' for the home screen. SO if in step one you called your feed R2D2, then in step two you should see R2D2 in the home screen widget list (it won't be labeled 'feed' or anything obvious, just
the name you gave it).



Hope that helps.
