Win10 seems to be getting updated automatically I do not know if that is a connection. About that time secured file sharing also quit which I got re-enabled. The strange part is that it was working on win10 about 2 months ago and I could access it from another win10 computer ant thirdly I could access it from an XP computer. I would like more suggestions to solve this problem. On printers that work if you do the above, test page remains in queue and you might get a message from win10.īy the way there is a shortcut that can be made to access devices, When on devices page, just drag a device to desktop and you will get a shortcut to it. (behaves the same way even if printer is powered OFF) However, nothing gets printed, and the print queue is EMPTY. It shows a message that test page was sent to printer. Then clicked on 'printer' then preferences then Then in the place where it says something like 'see what is printing' I clicked that. I added a printer and it showed up on the devices page as the proper printer.Ĭlicked on its icon. If the device with a check box is not your printer then right click on the printer and make that device the default. At this point your printer should have a green circle with a check mark to indicate that this device is the default device for this PC. On this page you will see the various devices that are installed and if your printer is installed there will be an Icon for it as well. Next scroll down a bit on that same page and under Related Settings click on the blue link for Devices and Printers. If it is, you will see a on/off switch for a setting called 'Let Windows Manage My Default Printer' On my PC the switch is turned off.

First, check to see of your LaserJet 1300 is in the list of installed printer. From within Settings click on Devices to bring up the devices settings. I would suggest that you start off by first clicking on the Window Icon in the lower left corner and then clicking the icon that looks like a gear on the left side of the menu to bring up SETTINGS.
