    PC doesn’t see printer


    My old HP Photosmart printer seems not to be connected to the PC running Windows 10/ 64 bit. The problem started after the power surge in my house. Now it is still able to make copies but not from the PC. I can see the files in the print queue but that’s all. I have already done everything that I can, including updating the drivers, unplugging everything billion times. In ‘Manage my devices”, I cannot see ‘Printer”. Any help is appreciated, please

    :)

    my 3Dprinter doesn´t appear

    My 3D printer doesn´t appear on when I open 3D builder on the left popup to choose printer.

    Is it need to do any previous step?? I thought It was plug and play. the printer is an UP Plus2 from Tiertime so, it is one of the recommended partners manufaturers. any message of error just doesnçt possible to send the prin.

  3. 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.
