I was taking care of some business online; printed a couple pages to save them; finished up my online business, then decided to print a photo. But suddenly every app that I normally can print from tells me I don't have a printer. ** I printed 30 minutes ago! **
I did not restart the pc, I didn't do anything to upset the status quo. I have three printers. When I look in Devices and Printers, it shows 2 of them active and one "greyed out." But even those two can't print because my apps tell me I don't have any. Of the two that it shows active, one is wireless and one is usb. The one that's not active is wireless. The network is up.
After running into this, I did restart the pc but it didn't fix the problem.
This is not the first time I've had to re-install printer drivers because of doing some sort of system rearrangements, but all I was doing was browsing online. Does anyone know what's up with this?
