    Printer glitch after installing windows 11


    After downloading windows 11 about 3 weeks ago found out I could not print anything other than a test sheet, and would always get a box which said "save output as". I contacted my printers tech support who spent three and a half hours trying to get my less than 1 year old printer to print. After the 3 1/2 hours he said that what happened was most likely a windows 11 glitch and that windows 11 erased my drive packet which made the printer struggle to find the drivers, and then it would take forever to reload drivers........after we got things back to where I could print, the quality was not goo

    Printer driver unavailable after printer install in windows 10

    Hi,

    I would suggest reinstalling the printer's legacy drivers.

    Here are the complete steps to do so,

    1. Press Windows+R and type in control printers

    2. Right click the printer with the issue and choose properties

    3. Go to the web services tab, save and copy the IP address under troubleshooting information as a reference to the printer's IP address

    4. Close the window and right click the same printer

    5. Choose to remove device

    6. Go to start/search and type in hdwwiz.exe and open the application

    7. Choose the option "Install the hardware that I manually select from a list

    8. Locate printer and choose next

    9. Choose to create a new port and choose standard tcp/ip port

    10. On the hostname type in the IP address from the printer that you've saved from step 3

    11. Choose the option "Replace the current driver"

    12. Choose printer name

    13. Choose the option "Share this printer so that others on your network can find and use it.

    14. Let the printer install for 5 minutes

    Printer not printing after installing the device on the PC on Windows 10.

    Hi Yitzchak,

    I suggest you to uninstall and re-install the printer as a work around and check if it helps.

    Step 1: Uninstall the printer:


    • Press “Windows + X” keys on the keyboard.

    • Click on “Device Manager” from that list.

    • Search for the “Printer” device from the device list, right click on it and then select “Uninstall”. On the un-installation window, if you have an option: “Delete the driver software for
      this device
      ” you may select that and then remove its drivers from the computer.

    • Follow the on-screen instructions to complete it and the restart the computer if prompted.


    You may also uninstall any related software provided by the printer manufacturer from the computer from “Programs and Features”. For this, you may follow these steps:


    • Press “Windows + X” keys on the keyboard and select “Programs and Features” from that list.

    • Search for any software provided by the printer manufacturer in the program list and if available, you may select it and click on “Uninstall” to remove it from the computer.

    • Follow the on-screen instructions to complete it and the restart the computer if prompted.


    Step 2: Install a Printer

    Refer to the below link about: Install a printer

    Hope this helps.
