Windows 10 and printers

[scrubjaysnest]

Anyone know of a small foot print printer that is win 10 compatible?
I've done an internet search and haven't found any. Our HP 1056 with updated drivers from HP was supposed to work but doesn't after several hours install/uninstall, reboots, and searching HP support. Now there is a worthless site.

I've learned over the last 20 years, one thing dealing with computers. If it's working, leave it the hell alone.

A quick google search said to use the Windows 8.1 drivers for this printer on Windows 10.

Tried it and it didnt work.

Quote from Canon: "There is no driver for the OS Version you selected."

In short, they have declared the ordinary PIXMA Pro 9000 to be at end of its life, but have produced a driver for the Pro 9000 MK II. You might want to try that one.

Good luck!

I was having a problem with our printer too. Tried updating everything over and over and nothing worked. Finally deleted all of the printer's programs and reinstalled them from the Epson web site. Everything works great now.

I use a canon IP here, and at work a Brother, but neither are "Small Footprint".

Sadly windows 10 does not support many older printers.

I have two different "HP Deskjet 3050A J611 series" printers working just fine with Win10.

Did you recently upgrade from a prior version of Windows? If so that might be the problem. I am having a similar problem with a Canon printer on a friend's computer that recently upgraded by mistake. Look into Print Spooler problems related to Windows 10 for further information. I don't have a fix as of yet.

My Cannon 4000 series is fine. Daughter just bought a Cannon 2900 series for Win10. It works fine. ( and it was $49)

I have a a Brother LC 71/75 series 3 in one printer that works fine on Windows 10.
