Just to be candid, I'm here at the suggestion of "antspants" over on Eleven Forums. He accepts full responxiblility for my posting this here. :cool:

About two weeks ago, I replaced my Win 10 HP...

Thanks. I'll give that a try.

That's worth trying, although Canon is not known for making legacy drivers available. So far, I have found none on their website.

I did that too. Same result. This whole problem is directly related to the clean Win 10 install about two months ago. For some reason, the printer hasn't cooperated since. I really don't want to go...

I tried that, but the installation app only creates an "Unknown Device" in Device Manager. Driver installation still fails. Thanks anyhow.

The first screenshot was simply to show the choices I was presented. The second image was the result of using "USB Connection."

Revo found four Canon files, which I removed.
USBDeview found no lingering registry entries.
Installation of the v7.1.2 driver essentially failed. Device Manger showed that an Unknown Device -...

hrolden, thanks for all that very useful info. Unfortunately, until I get this printer driver figured out, I can't move on to reconfiguring things with a print server or router.

One question,...

Hope this is what you're requesting. Thanks.

Regarding your Q8 and Q9, the answer is no to both. On the host, I removed each Canon instance in "Devices and Printers", removed each Canon device in "Device Manager", uninstalled the ScanGear...

I'm done trying to fix this issue with drivers only. I'd like to lean on you for guidance on how to resolve this as simply, inexpensively and reliably as possible.

Nope.

At this point, I'll try almost anything. It's so stupid to create a document on my laptop, then have to save it to a shared file, walk into my office, open that...

Oops!

Thanks. Did that, but the Event Log still shows the printer needs "Further Installation."

I right clicked on the installer file, but I was not presented with a window showing "Unblock" under the "General" tab / "Advanced" attributes. I'll try the Custom install routine next. I really...

Yes, I have always done that during driver installation, and I confirmed that with RickC. Thanks for responding to my issue.

Forgive me, I previously overlooked that...

Thanks for your interest and assistance. You are correct, the Canon printer can be very finicky, but I've learned to accept its tempermental nature. I’ll attempt to answer your questions in the same...

The printer is a Canon ImageClass D530 laser multifunction device. It's a workhorse - never an issue until the clean Win 10 install two months ago. Device Manager for the host shows no errors, and...

I’ve been pulling my hair out for the past two months. I have continuing issues with a USB Canon laser printer installed after a clean Win 10 installation on the host computer, including sharing it...

Oops! I initially responded to erpster4, but decided that post simply confirmed the driver version I recently installed. Sorry . . . my Emily Latilla moment.

That did it! Thanks, my man.

I've just gone down this road myself. I've sensed for a while that there has been a slowdown in my Internet download speeds, as well as file transfer speeds between devices - phone/desktop/laptop....

Wow! Thanks for that excellent tutorial!

Just started my first thread. Been using Win 10 for six years. I'm a forum newcomer, 'cause I haven't had any Win 10 questions or issues until now.

Looking forward to the comraderie :cool:

Yes, they're UEFI.
