  1. Printer on My LAN Not recognized or seen ?


    Hello again everyone. My issue is with a printer on my LAN that my new laptop doesn't see or discover. I've run all the diagnostics to no avail. I know there is a switch on this PC to enable discovering this printer but....you know...every so often I have re-do every setup again when using a new device. SO tiresome but such is life...ANy hints would be much appreciated. THis question of mine was posted a couple of years ago regarding another PC of mine and there was an answer but I can't find my original question ?

    Best Regards Ell

    :)

  2. How can I get Windows 10 to recognize an Unspecified Device as a Printer?

    I have installed a DYMO printer, but it is not listed as a printer but only as an Unspecified Device. How can I get Windows 10 to recognize an Unspecified Device as a Printer? All printer troubleshooting steps require it to be listed as a Printer, and
    all Help solutions assume that it can be recognized as a printer.

    Good LAN party games?

    Most of my suggestions have already been listed.

    However, I found Swat4 to actually be a pretty fun LAN game, especially at smaller LAN parties.
