Windows 10: Shared printer problem with windows 10 printer default manage

I have done a simple test sharing a brand new fully win 10 compatible printer.
But the problem still there. That shows it is not a problem of old or new compatible printer.
Win 10 dont work well with shared printers and default manage.

For your info my dynosaurus ( only a simple label printer) uses an updated win 10 driver.

 

There is no problem with Windows 10 sharing printers. It has worked for everyone with no issue. Also for your old Label printer, there is no Windows 10 driver for it, because it was discontinued when XP came out.

 

solved changing registry and everything works fine.

drivers for this printer are not discontinued but updated

*Cool

 

I've got the exact same problem. We've always used a Dymo Labelwriter 450 turbo and 450 twin turbo on Windows XP. It used to work until the W10 update in October. On all computers the "Let Windows manage default printers" is set off.

What did you change in the registry to get it working?

 

Hi

I'm experiencing the same issue with Epson TM-T88iV shared receipt printers. The host machine's default printer is changed to the Epson after a client machine prints to it. Very annoying.

The Epson drivers have been updated to support Windows 10, (ver. 4.56E)

Many other people with shared printers are experiencing the same issue. See here.

Tremore - please let us know what registry changes you made!

Thanks

 

such a helpful thread , not only did i get an idea of a solution for my issue i learned how to maintain electronics in my business! thanks!

 

I'm switching to Windows office from the home version. Also downgrading to 7 from 10. I've recently hired an IT company to help streamline my operation and this was their solution. Apparently Windows 8-10 is a disaster for networking.
