  1. Purchasing a new printer for W10


    I am currently using Home Version Build 19536.1000. With all these updates my printer is now obsolete. I would like to purchase a new all in one but am skeptical because of the W10 updates. I have looked at several , however, not all are OS compatable with W10. I know that new driver options are available for some printers but I'm thinking it might be best to wait till
    W10 updates are finished. I would ask for your opinion please, thanks

    :)

    Having trouble deleting printer


    I have had a Canon Pixma MX850 for several years and it has been a workhorse. Recently I purchased a Canon Pixma MX492 for the added wifi capability. Under no circumstances am I able to remove the MX850 from the Printers and Devices menu. I have been on the phone with Microsoft and Canon several hours over the last week. It still sits there as I type this. When I install the MX492 and update drivers, it still does not show on the printers list and is not recognized when I try to add a printer to the list.

    The Canon tech I spoke to suggested there might be a corrupt file or malware somewhere not allowing the removal of the MX850. He suggested I create a new Admin account which would create a new registry and see how that worked. I did that and the MX492 shows up on the printers list and is the default printer.

    When I am on my old admin sign on where the MX850 shows up, I can print in Word and Quicken on the MX492 even though it does not show as a printer on the printer page.

    So, what to do?

    Thanks in advance.

  3. Looking for a new Printer

    Well, after a recipe cook, and start of another one, my Epson Workforce 500 died.. *Cry :cry: Served me good for 2 years.

    So, now looking for a new printer to buy come next pay


    • Price: Under $200
    • Preference: All-in-One since I work from home when I'm off the clock. (has to have a fax)
      Scanner/copier/fax
    • Color Printer
    • Networking of any kind. Printer is close to router
    No brand is a preference. I do have a Corporate discount with both HP and CDW.

    Thanks

    Purchasing a new printer for W10

    I need a new printer.

    Do the above suggested printers jam up easy? If there is 2 pieces of office equipment I loathe, 1st is copy machines, and 2nd is printers.
