W10 threw away printer and scanner
I used an HP printer for months after 'upgrading' to windows 10. Suddenly it stopped appearing - apparently after an overnight update. It seems it is an 'old' printer, and I had to go and reload the drivers. Now it works. How can that possibly make any sense - either the thing works or it doesn't - by what right was it thrown away without comment or question?
I have only brought this up because even later than that my Canon scanner has just disappeared overnight, no comment, no questions. Since it's been working for ages under 10, why oh why has someone decided that last night it must stop?
I'm getting teed off with this random arrogant junking of my kit - what should I expect to go next?
More importantly - anybody know how to get a Canoscan 8800 back under W10?
