[RESOLVED] New PC with Windows 10 can't find my printers

I just bought a new PC to replace my eight (!) year old one that was showing it's age. I'm having a problem with Windows finding my printers.

My old PC was using a Dell C1760nw connected with USB. This new PC couldn't find it. I then configured the printer to hook wirelessly to my router. Now it shows up in PRINTERS. However, there is no option to set it as default. I dragged out an even older Canon MG2400 printer/scanner and connected it. Same thing. It shows up but no option to set as default.

When I go to print a document, the only printers that show up in PRINTER SETTINGS are MS One Note, MS Document Writer and MS Print to PDF.

Sounds like a MS conspiracy to me. Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

Terry

Problem solved.

I nosed around with google and found a firmware update for the C1760 printer. I reset it to factory settings (wiping out the wireless connection) and applied the firmware. Went back to ADD A PRINTER and W10 found it this time.

*whew*

Thanks for the update. Glad you got it working.
