    Printer will not print since last windows 10 update.


    Since the last windows 10 update I can no longer get my HP Laserjet P4014N printer to print. I was online with HP for over an hour and in the end my printer still did not print. All the printer drivers that should have worked were tried and still no printing. and they suggested I contact Microsoft. Anyone have any suggestions?

    :)

    Windows 10 Home Won't Print to Remote Printer


    I have three computers.
    Machine 1: Windows 10 pro, has the USB Brother HL-5040 printer
    Machine 2: Windows 10 pro, prints OK to the remote printer.
    Machine 3: Windows 10 home, Used to print, but not anymore (THIS IS THE PROBLEM).
    I’ve tried everything that I can think of, and would appreciate any suggestions.
    I did these steps on Machine 3 that did not work.

    1. Remove the printer device.
    2. Add a Printer
    3. The printer that I want isn’t listed
    4. Select a shared printer by name
    5. Browse
    6. Select the displayed Machine 1.
    7. Select the displayed Printer.
    8. Next
    9. Failure “Connect to Printer”.
    10. Add a printer using a TCP/IP address or Hostname
    11. Next
    12. Set Hostname to Machine 2, and set port name.
    13. Detecting TCP/IP Port
    14. Additional Port information required.
    15. Device Type – Standard, Brother Port Server
    16. Next
    17. Detecting the Driver Model
    18. Install The Print Driver
    19. Select Brother and Brother HL-5040
    20. Next
    21. Replace the Current Driver
    22. Printer Name (setting it to HL-5040)
    23. Next
    24. Do not share this printer
    25. Next
    26. You’ve successfully added “HL-5040”
    27. Finish
    Printing on Machine 3 puts the document in the print queue, which reports error printing.
    Printing from Machine 2 to the printer on Machine 1 works perfectly.
    All three machines are in the same HomeGroup. Machine 3 can access the shared files from Machine 1.

  3. HP6520 printer unable to print on Windows 10

    Hi Ray,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community, we appreciate your interest in Windows 10.

    As you facing issues with printing do let us know the following:

    • What exactly happens when you try to print the content?
    • Is this printer works fine when connected to different computer?
    • How have you connected the printer to your device?

    This issue might have occurred due to corrupted or outdated printer drivers after upgrading to Windows 10.

    I suggest you to try the below and check.

    Step 1: Run printer troubleshooter from the below link:

    Fix printer problems

    Step 2: I suggest you to remove and update the drivers for the printer and check if it helps.

    To remove printer driver from Device manager:

    • Press Windows + R keys from the keyboard to open
      Run command.
    • Type devmgmt.msc in
      Run
      window to open Device Manager window.
    • Under Print queues, right click on the printer and
      uninstall.
