    Where is the printer in the notification area?


    In previous versions of windows there has been an icon in the notification area that allowed me to see what was happening to items that were printing.

    Whichever printer they were sent to. Is there a way to get the same function in Windows 10?

    Sorry if my terminology is wrong would that be the print queue / server or print spooler? I have checked these settings:

    Startup and Notification area

    R]I ran this batch file, but it did not help (which I understand, because Task Manager > Processes does NOT show WinDates).

    I am back to the conclusion that Win 10 can run WinDates manually, but not automatically at startup (via link). If I double-click on the link C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup\WinDates.lnk, WinDates opens fine.

    My next step will be to run a scan of system files to see if something is corrupt. However, any other suggestions are welcome.

    • Right click Taskbar.
    • Select Properties.
    • Untick Show taskbar on all displays; then, Apply.

    Where is the printer in the notification area?

    (SOLVED/CLOSED)looking for help with Android phone CONSTANT wireless signal notification

    Yeah, thats not a solution she is interested in......I've suggested that course of action. Thanks though.

    Just to clarify, I feel that there MUST be a step, or series of steps to turn off JUST the wireless notification sound. Thats what Im driving @ here.
