Configuring printer ports Printing errors can occur when the IP address of the machine has been changed, or when a printer has been added via the Windows printer folder. These errors are typically caused by incorrect printer port settings. For example, an incorrect port number or port type may have been specified in the computer. In this case, you need to configure the printer port settings. Configuring Printer Ports Setting up WSD network devices on Windows Vista/7/8/10 Use the WSD port to install the printer driver. For more information, see the manuals for the relevant drivers on the online manual website. |
