    After upgrading to fall creator, Printer not working


    Yesterday, I upgrade windows to fall creator and now my HP 1020 Plus printer (2017 Mfg) is not working. I ran the MS troubleshooter but it did not find any problem.

    Uninstall it and then download a fresh copy of the driver/software and then reinstall it.

    I uninstalled the printer and printer driver. Then I went to HP website but the driver at the site was of old date 2016. I downloaded again but before installing I attached the printer again and checked device manager and found that their was no question mark on printer which means that the fall creator update has driver included. I gave the print command and it was successful.

    I think this post will be useful for others who may be facing same type of problem.

    The conclusion, uninstall the printer and driver and when you will attach printer again, Windows will automatically assign driver to it.

    Thanks for the Hint.
