Win 10 update broke LW printers #84

Open rdyar opened 7 years ago

Just did a major win 10 update (2017 creators) and afterwards our printers didn't work - both for LW and our label printer for endicia. The label printer was easy to get back to work but I don't remember what we did.

For LW it would print to other printers on a different computer, but the normal receipt printer was just printing one line of a messed up character.

While working on it the windows print spooler kept crashing, had to keep Services open and keep starting the print spooler service.

Eventually what I think fixed it was to go into each printer option report and select the printer, make sure the properties were right (sometimes the paper size is letter instead of 72mm x receipt). Going thru and making sure to save/ok on each one I think eventually got them all to work.
