Laser printers are very affordable nowadays and ultimately cheaper in long run but certainly easier to maintain and virtually trouble free comparing to inkjets.

Integrated mono laser printers and colour scanners are incredibly cheap. I use a Brother one which is fine.

I've had a HP LaserJet P1102w for about 10 years, changed the cartridge once. It's worked flawlessly on Win 7 & 10.
I seldom use it, but, I don't have to worry about dry ink cartridges. No use for color printers anymore, the ink is way too expensive to be tossing out 3 dried out cartridges.

Amazon.com: HP LaserJet Pro P1102w Wireless Laser Printer (CE658A): Electronics

Thanks but I do not use Amazon, and as I said , I have no use for a printer. If I wanted a picture printed I would put the image on a Flash Drive and take to the Photography store.

Can anyone tell me the reason for that error: 6824 (below) when I run: "dism.exe /Online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup"

Current Status of Windows 10 October 2018 Update version 1809-error-6824-when-running-dism-startcomponentcleanup.png

I remember @CountMike answering to a post with someone with similar issue that his "Graphics were too slow". That was the first thing I did by downloading NVIDIA GeForce Experience which has updated my Display Adapter to the latest version. After that, I re-ran: "dism.exe /Online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup" again and I still got the same error message.

That's the only issue I am facing with one of my machines (HP Envy). Any help would be greatly appreciated!

My 10 year old hp laser jet is working fine in 10 and I get my toner cartridges from amazon for around $10 each so I'm happy. I like my color pages right now.

I have an HP inkjet which dates to win XP and which uses native driver, along with a multifunction HP officejet using its native driver, and an HP laser jet using its own native driver—all work fine on Win 10.

Any info in the dism.log file?

Edit: I just tried it and I get the same error message. Something to do with the latest 1809 CU as it wasn't there prior to installing it.

Edit#2: I ran all the usual commands from inside a batch file:

Only StartComponentCleanup failed, the other two worked correctly.

I didn't see anything useful in the dism.log file.

You had exactly the same reaction as I did, i.e, running: sfc /scannow; Dism.exe /online /Cleanup-Image /restorehealth. No problem there either with both. I even went for a repair install in the hope that the issue would be fixed. No dice, instead after the in-place upgrade, I had to face quite another issue with Microsoft Edge which wouldn't launch no matter what: Repair, Reset and even those command lines in PowerShell:

Get-AppXPackage -Name Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register “$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml” -Verbose}

Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers -Name Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register “$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml” -Verbose}

I had to roll back with a MR system image backup. I am glad in a way that I am not the only one facing this problem, meaning it is intrinsic somehow to the latest CU

I ran it in Safe Mode and it ran fine, no problems, no need to go back to a previous version. I wouldn't for that error anyway since everything else has been working fine for me since Oct 2nd.

I did notice that Shift/Restart no longer works to get to Safe Mode. I used SafeModeCommandPrompt.vbs from WinAeroTweaker to add Safe Mode to the Desktop Context Menu. That still works great. When done, right click and select Exit Safe mode to return to normal mode.

Can't enter feedback, getting connecting problems:

Very kind of you for all the info. I am not even going to try it in SafeMode. I believe you and I'll probably get the same result. Here is only hoping that tomorrow's CU (If there is one; we never know with MS those days..) will fix the problem.

Cheers!

Shift+Restart gets me to the Advanced Startup options, from where Trouibleshoot > Advanced options > Startup Settings lets me get to Safe Mode. This is the same for my 1809 17763.168 as on my 1803 17134.441.

My Feedback Hub works in 1809 too.

So does Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup without using safe mode.
