Post by scotroots »

Just from last week I can no longer print in Open Office, I did the update and still no printing. Printer is fine, everything else is printing to it. Only this program is not.. I last printed from Open Office I think last Wednesday, and I know Windows did an update last week too. Is anyone else having this issue pls?? windows 10

Some recent postings say that reinstalling the printer cures this problem.

Pending reinstalling, if you have urgent printing, Export as PDF and print from your PDF utility.

Be sure to get the new driver from the manufacturer's web site - there are reports that the problem is caused by W10 having? installing? the wrong driver.

See the other posts about printing - there are at least two on the first page!
