    Printer issues


    I have tried several times to instal the software for docuprint 225dw. The process continues smoothly untill a popup appears requesting that I disconnect the USB cable connecting the computer to the printer. It then freezes and the only option is to cancel. The software has been installed previously on this computera desktop. I can print from my phone and a windos laptop.Can any one help?

    :)

    win10 sez no drivers for brither hl5040 printer

    To be sure that you followed my suggestion correctly, I will specify some steps: CP>devices and printers>add a printer>the printer that I want isn't listed>add a local printer with manual settings>define port>Windows update and install

    Hi,

    Welcome to Microsoft Community and thank you for your interest in Windows.

    • Is it a wired or wireless printer?
    • Is the printer connected via network to your computer?
    I suggest you to make printer as a default printer you can follow the below steps:

    • Press Windows key+ X and select
      device manager      .
    • Select devices and printers
    • Right click on the printer you want to use, and then click
      set as default printer (You'll see a check mark on the printer's icon signifying that it's now your default printer).
    I suggest you to update the drivers for the printers and check if it helps.

    I also recommend you to run the print troubleshooter to check the issue.

    Hi Rodrigo,

    I am sorry to know that you are having issues with Printer.

    What and all steps have you tried so far?

    Restart the computer and check.

    Also, check for Windows updates.

    I suggest you to run the Printer Troubleshooter and check if it helps.

    • Click on Hardware and Sound.

    • Then click on Printer to run the troubleshooter. Follow onscreen steps.
