  1. Printer drivers installation failure


    I have just received an error message 5001:0xfffec6b after downloading and attempting to install driver updates for a Brother printer. Download was made from their support website. Operating System is Windows 8.1 64bit The printer's drivers were uninstalled beforehand,as per instructions, so this has left me with a useless printer. The installation wizard failed even though I had temporarily disabled the firewall and only my internet browser was open at the time. I am the sole user of this pc so it is doubtful that it was a problem with administrative rights.

    :)

  3. error 0X800f0214 when installing printer driver - Microsoft Community

    Hi Plamen,

    It could be the driver is not installed properly or has got corrupted. We would like to ask for additional information. Please provide the following:

    • Which build of Windows 10 are you using? To know about it, hit
      Start, type Winver and then press
      Enter. You could also press Windows Key + R, type
      Winver into the
      Run dialog and press Enter.
    • Aside from installing the printer device, were there any changes made on your computer prior to the issue?
    • Can you tell us what troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

    Furthermore, we suggest that you try to uninstall and reinstall the printer driver and see if the issue persists. We highly suggest to check the website of the manufacturer of the said printer to know the compatible driver for your current
    Windows 10 build.

    As a reference, we also suggest that you check this article to troubleshoot printer problems for Windows 10.

    Looking forward to the requested information and the results of the recommended troubleshooting steps.
