Hi,

The issue here seems to be with the corrupt printer drivers.

Follow the steps below to reinstall the driver.

1. Click the "Start" button, type PRINTER in the search box and press Enter.

2. Find the icons which are related to the printer, and delete them.

3. Right-click on the blank part of the window, and choose "Run as administrator"->"Server Properties".

4. On the Drivers tab, select the listed printer and click the Remove button. Please then select Remove driver and driver package.

5. Open Start menu, input APPWIZ.CPL in the Search box and press ENTER to launch "Programs and Features".

6. Try to remove all related printer software.

7. Then, download the latest driver from the printer manufacturer's website.

8. Install the driver.



All the Best!!!!
