Shared printer problem with windows 10 printer default manage

That will not work for the OP, since the printer was disco'd after Windows 2000, but Brother was able to make the driver work for XP & Vista. After that, it was no longer supported and there is no way that this dinosaur will work for the OP, even with CUPS, after I was able to do a little more research.

The OP needs to get an updated device and toss this one into the E-Cycle bin.

In business you need up to date printer and scanner
You can pick a brand new one up over here in UK for under £100
With Wi-Fi and a years supply of ink thrown in

I brought 6 months ago with my daughter or there about, 25 HP Envy Printer Scanner
Because we brought in bulk we got them for about £50 each
All Wi-Fi and all working with windows 10 also at the time a years supply of ink and paper
Straight from HP themselves

Sharing Ql-570 works very well with 10 and descoverable.

The only bad iussue is that the 10's last buit has intruduced an unusefull feature that by default change the default printer (forcing users default).
This drive my user creazy with normal activity with network printer before I found that it can be switch off.

WINDOWS DEFAULT MANAGE

Problem still there only for share printers and it is not a matter of drivers.

I hope MS will cut off this new feature.
Please MS manage your business not my printers. :)

Just need to stop this help not needed.

Remind me if you run a business not to come to you with trying to run a 16 year old printer

hTconeM9user, I ended up getting a Brother Laser HL-2280dw, since we only use Black ink and scan to fax a lot.

I got tired of buying Ink cartridges every 6 months after they sat and dried out from non use.

When my kids were in high school, they would constantly print stuff. Now that they are on their own, it sits more then used.

I did not realize when I got it that it did not do Airprint, so I got the Lantronix Home server, which I could have just spent what I paid for that on the next printer up.

There is no problem with Windows 10 sharing printers. It has worked for everyone with no issue. Also for your old Label printer, there is no Windows 10 driver for it, because it was discontinued when XP came out.

I've got the exact same problem. We've always used a Dymo Labelwriter 450 turbo and 450 twin turbo on Windows XP. It used to work until the W10 update in October. On all computers the "Let Windows manage default printers" is set off.

What did you change in the registry to get it working?
