When I select add printer it shows my network then double clicking this opens a window showing a printer icon but its a previous version? so when I select it as a printer to add nothing happens and it still doesnt appear as a selectable printer in the printer preferences pop up window. If I open a word document and select print the printer preferences dialogue window opens but no printer is visible to select. Here is the part that I believe appears to be different from the other case on the forum. I have tried NET STOP SPOOLER / NET START SPOOLER. The icon appears in the device and printer window but with an exclamation mark.
I have a downloaded the windows 7 update. I cant say with 100% conviction whether this was when the upgrade to windows 7 occured or not Ok this topic is all over the help forums but I have a couple of different observations not previously covered and all remedies that have been posted and worked for most havent worked for meįirst of all the Printer used to work with USB or NET connection and then suddenly unexpectedly stopped working.
