Dear Experts.

My client uses HP Laserjet 4250 with his accounting software, which requires DOT4 USB driver.  I have been able to install this printer and print from other programs, however, I need to be able to add addtional driver for the accounting software to print.
I was able to do this once by downloading DOT4x64 USB universal driver from HP, and get it going.  However, I had to re-image the PC because of malware, and now the same file, Dot4x64.msi will not run.  I tried to run it on my PC, and it runs fine.  I disabled McAfee, and still cannot run.
My PC and his PC are both Windows 10 Pro, 64-bit machines.  Is there a way to force a driver without running Dot4x64.msi?  I do see the USB designated for Laserjet 4250 in the device manager, but cannot update the driver.

Please help.

I've researched heaps for this on line and although have found people who have had the same issue and have solved it with various suggestions nothing is working for me. I'm setting up a domain environment for a small company and we just started adding a few users when we came across this issue so its good that we are not impacting large numbers of users. I had 3 printers shared on my File server. I had group policy objects to map the printers based on the level they worked on in the company. I first noticed an issue when I joined the first user to the domain on the ground floor. I expected only one printer to be mapped however noticed 4, a duplicate of level 2 existed. Strange. I then looked further into it and found suggestions of windows 10 auto mapping. I switched off network discovery, in sharing centre, changed some settings in group policy but every time I delete the printers, they reappear as soon as you log back on. I removed the group policy mappings altogether, still there. I even deleted the printers on the print server! still they reappear. Pulling my hair out here!.

Any thoughts appreciated

When a fax is received on an HP 300-400 MFP how do I set it to print and forward to an email address?   Currently, it only prints

Quick issue.

Currently one of my clients has a printer in the CEO's office that everyone has the ability to print to.   The printer is not shared on the network so I am unsure how the printers are being added to the workstations, perhaps some clever people here that know how to manually map to it.

What is the best practice to only allow 2 people to access the printer?  

What I did was share the printer on the network, and removed everyone from the security tab under printer properties.   I then just added the 2 users that need it since they are on the domain.  My only worry is 1 user is a mac user and will the policy reach her mac machine allowing her to print?  I guess I need to test it out from another machine to ensure noone else can.   But I wanted thoughts if what I did was not 100% and perhaps there is a better recommendation.

When printing an email from Outlook 2016 it starts OK but then the printed area becomes increasingly narrow until only a few characters are printed in the centre of the page.  It is showing 116 pages to when viewing from Print Preview.

Has anyone experienced this and has a fix?

I picked up a couple of the new Linksys Business APs that allow VLAN Tagging and I am having fits getting the VLANS on the switch configured properly to get these APs to work. There are currently 3 VLANS on the switch:

1: Management, ports 1-28, port 1 goes to SonicWall
2: Guest, ports 29-34, port 29 goes to SonicWall
3: Printers, ports 35-44, port 35 goes to SonicWall

Each port on the SonicWall is a different network and does the rules between networks. It is also the DHCP for each network. So... what I was trying to do was put these APs on the Guest network and if I were to tag a specific SSID with VLAN 3 it would give the clients on that SSID access to printers.

So what D-Link told me to do was to tag port 35 and share it with the Guest VLAN. So when a client on that specific SSID (tagged with VLAN 3) came in to VLAN 2 it would immediately pass the packet to VLAN 3 and in turn give it access to printers.

When I did that the management VLAN could no longer avvess printer. What a mess. It seemed so simple. Any ideas on what I am missing?

We are having print spooler problems with our network users, when using shared printers from our print server.  It coincides with upgrading our print server from Server 2008 to 2012, and then to 2016 Server.  What is happening is all their shared printers on the clients go "offline".  We can temporarily fix the issue by restarting the spooler on the client's machine, then the printers go online and they work - for a while.  The issue repeats itself by the next day.  I've made sure to run all available updates on the server and reboot it several times, but that doesn't help.  Has anyone run into this issue?  The clients are Windows 10, by the way.

Thanks,

New Lenovo Thinkpad laptop with Win10 Pro v1909 connected WIRELESSLY to a home office peer network.

Laptop connected to a NAS and a Unix server with no difficulty, but couldn't connect to any printers. One printer is an HP LaserJet with a static IP address. The other is a is a shared HP USB connected inkjet printer.

Neither printer's installer could see the target printer. The LaserJet was neither pingable nor could I connect to its webserver with a browser.

An older Windows 7 laptop, also connected wirelessly, has no difficulty printing to either of the printers.

The laptop gets it's IP address via DHCP. It's on the same network as all the other devices on, hence its ability to connect to the NAS and the UNIX server.

It's been driving me nuts...then I wa finally able to connect it to the network with a wire. Presto...both printers installed as expected. Went back to a wireless connection and the printers were unreachable again, as expected.

Why? ALL network properties for both the wireless and ethernet adapters are exactly the same. Network and Sharing options all all the same on a Private network.

What am I missing?

Thanks

I'm deploying Windows 10 Kiosk Mode - Microsoft Edge with "As a public browser" manually by using Windows Settings (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/deploy/microsoft-edge-kiosk-mode-deploy)

So that mean, Windows creates a normal local user is named "KioskUser0" by default and automatically login and start Microsoft Edge with defined websites.

It works fine with local printer (USB port) and problem happen with network printers. I don't know how to add network printer to this user (KioskUser0). I have been trying to Google without luck (these days).

Hello and Good Evening Everyone,

            I am needing guidance in resolving a wireless printing issue with an HP ENVY Photo 6255 printer.   Basically, whenever I send a document to the printer, I get a message indicating the printer is offline.  That said, what can I do to get the printer back online so it will receive and print my documents?

             Any technical help directed toward this concern will be greatly appreciated.

             Thank you

On a Canon imageRunner iR-ADV-C5560 III, I opened the "Communication settings" from the portal and found the "Default Subject" for the scan-to-email feature.

How can I also customize the default message/body for that same feature?

It was available on the former Xerox but can't find it on the newer Canon.

We customize it to set a body that users recognized easily differentiate legit from other fraudulent emails that we sometimes receive.
