  1. Printer not showing up in Printers & Scanners but does show up in Print Management


    I installed a Zebra ZP 505 Shipping Label printer recently. It does not show up in "Printers & Scanners" but it does show up in "Print Management".If I try to print something the ZP 505 appears on the drop down selection but I cannot access it from the "Printers & Scanners".I believe that it's also important to mention that my main printer shows and then disappears from the Printers & Scanners section.Can anyone assist?Thanks, Jack

    :)

  2. Printer in device list wont show up in printer list for printing.

    I successfully add my bluetooth printer to the printer list, and it shows up in the scanner app, but it wont show up as a printer for any of the apps that print, or in any of the other management lists.

    Active printer showing offline in printers and scanners but cannot be found in device manager

    This all started trying to print a document. to my knowledge nothing has been updated or changed on this device since last time.

    The printer continually shows offline in the printers and scanners and printer trouble shooting says the printer is off please turn it on, even when its on.

    This printer could not be removed from the printers and scanners screen. it just lags forever and does nothing when the remove button is clicked.

    My attempt at changing the port and reconfiguring gives the error message that the document cannot print and no further info.

    And to top it off the device management screen doesn't show this printer at all!

    Any suggestions for how to get my printer back?

    Printer not showing up in Printers & Scanners but does show up in Print Management

    Printer Shows "Not Connected" Status but Prints

    I have three computers (two running 1909 and one running 2004) that print to a network-attached (wired) HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus. The web interface for the printer shows a "Ready" status and the computers are able to print. However, when I navigate to Settings | Devices | Printers & Scanners, the printer shows a "Not Connected" status.

    I have uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers. Immediately following the installation/reinstallation of the drivers, the printer will show the correct status in Printers & Scanners. However, after a reboot, the printer will show "Not Connected" again. All three computers behave exactly the same way. The built-in Windows printing troubleshooter detects an issue but states it's not able to fix it.

    At this point, it seems cosmetic but still annoying and I'd like to fix it. Any suggestions on what to try next?
