    Hello,



    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.



    I request you to remove the icon and add the icon again.

    If this doesn't helps, uninstall and Reinstall the Printer's Driver.

    Step 1: Uninstall the Printer's Drivers

    • Press “Windows Logo” + “X” keys on the keyboard.
    • Click on “Device Manager” from that list.
    • Search for the Printer from the device list, right click on it and then select “Uninstall”. On the un-installation window, if you have an option: “Delete the driver software for this device” you may select that and then remove
      the corrupted drivers from the computer.
    • Follow the on-screen instructions to complete it and then restart the computer if prompted.
    After the restart, please go ahead with the next steps to install the latest drivers and check if that resolves the issue.

    Update Driver Software from the Manufacturer’s website:



    Step 2:Go to the Printer manufacturer’s website and search for the latest Windows 10 drivers available for the printer model and then install it by following the instructions given in the website.

    I hope this helps you. If you have any further queries, feel free to contact us. We will be happy to help you.



    Thank you.
