• Devices and Printers dialog box empty

  When I opened my "Devices and printers" dialog box, it is empty; nothing shows, and registration of the order of the day says "0 items.

  Printers appeared in the devices dialog box and printers and devices box earlier, but now are gone from the dialog box.  However, they are still in the system, everything seems to work.  The problem of trying to define the preferences for the devices and printers, because they cannot be seen or accessed.

  Anyone got ideas on how get the devices and printers will appear again?

  Devices and printers will show a device when you set up multiple printers for the same device.   There is a passage outwards the menu to access all the other printers on the device.    Use teams of spooler UI, printmanagement.msc to display all local printers on Pro and Ultimate.

  The old printers folder can be launched if you run Home versions.

  Open a command prompt and paste this in.

  Hello

  By consulting the user guide once more tried to locate all the other parameters that may apply, I could personally find not 1 but of course there might be there... as any router have different options and many...

  Have you checked with your ISP that you have the latest firmware for your router? any update of the firmware can help a lot with this kind of questions.

  It is the only router, right? It has no additional effect as a range extender. etc?

  You get power from the strong wifi signal for your printer and computer?

  Please let me know the results with the USB for the moment, the software is there as we have strengthened it even installed earlier...

  Please keep me with any change, I'll try to think of other measures to try while waiting...

• Printer appears online in devices and printers, but in offline mode in the print dialog box

  After I plugged an inkjet printer from Canon iP4000 in my computer running Windows 7 SP 1 Ultimate 64 - bit edition, the printer is displayed correctly in devices and printers as a printer online but appears offline in print dialog common used by applications.

  Sometimes, I am able to print despite the problem, but as a general rule, the monitoring software will say that the printer does not Canon.

  In addition, a WiFi adapter sometimes loses the WiFi connection and is unable to find all the networks.

  Tried many things:

  • Uninstall of the printer
  • Manually clearing print jobs
  • Reset
  • Unplug the printer from a USB hub and connect directly to a USB port on the monitor

  I can not easily plug the printer to the computer directly because of the locations of the case of the printer and the computer. I tried to connect the printer directly to my ThinkPad and the printer does work very well in this situation.

  This who can I try to do at this point?

  > modifications

  N ° the problem occurs even after a new installation of Windows.

  The printer is dead and the 'solution' is to Canon printer in an electronic recycler so buy a Brother laser printer that takes in charge of wireless network.

• Devices and printers icons

  How do I change the icon of the generic printer for a period that best represents my printer. No problem on the other two systems with Win7, but the new machine gives me a way to change. It is for me a custom icon for my HP printer, but a generic for my Epson printer. Have some custom icons for the two printers on other machines in Win7. Help!

  There is a lot of information on the web about this.  For example, to see the results of this research--> https://www.google.com/search?q=windows+7+devices+and+printers+icons+change&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8

• Why are there two icons for my P1102w in devices and printers, Windows 7 Pro?

  I've recently updated the firmware and drivers on a LaserJet P1102w and now have two icons in devices and printers on Windows 7 Pro. An icon is correct and functional; the other is basically an icon that does not work and it reads series of printers HP LaserJet P1100. Functional icon reads the printer HP LaserJet 1102w (which is correct). If a single UN-installs the unusable icon, Windows just charge drivers to re - start. Is it possible to get rid of this icon?

  The problem has been resolved.

  HP Smart Install apparently was the problem. It is that I have updated the firmware and drivers to the latest (version October 2012) that the problem started. I used the HP CD and run the utility to disable Smart Install. I managed to remove the second icon, and he never returned.

  When I bought the printer, Smart Install worked fine, but not after the firmware upgrade.

• Where are stored the icons "devices and printers"?

  I want to use the icons that appear for my devices in "Devices and printers", but I don't know where Windows stores. It is easier for me to see what the hardware actually looks like instead of trying to remember that drive E is in the dock but F Drive is a USB key connected to the doch, etc..

  The answer is integrated peripheral Windows\System32\DDOres.dllnfor and \programdata\microsoft\windows\devicemetadatacache\dmrccache\en-us\ with a unique folder for installed devices ID.

• Webcam icon does not appear in devices and printers

• In devices and printers, I have an icon for a laptop with a yellow exclamation point. I have a desktop computer and remove this icon of the laptop.

  A laptop once was connected to my desktop via USB cable PC; It belonged to me.  The owner wants to access its database of the company, but in vain.

  Now, in devices and printers, I have a laptop icon that is not one of my devices, but the Device Manager lists in "Other devices" with a (USB) universal serial bus controller, which is also included in the icon of the computer laptop properties under the material.  The yellow exclamation point is for troubleshooting.  The problem is: I do not own a laptop device.

  I want to remove the icon of the laptop and its inscriptions, including the (USB) universal serial bus controller.  Both are marked by a yellow exclamation point, but, of course, they do not work because they do not exist.  But this icon of the laptop has name my PC on it.

  My desktop PC should not be listed in devices and printers, does it?

  Open devices and printers right click on the device - remove the instrument.

• Cannot remove the icon of the printer generic devices and printers

  Title: Removing 'generic icon' page devices and printers in Control Panel

  I had reinstalled a HP Photosmart Premium printer and it worked last night, but this morning, I discovered that I was not able to print to the printer (the option for this printer was not available).

  I went to the control panel and the page devices and printers and clicked on "add a printer". However, I accidentally created a generic icon (printer, Scanner, copier) on this page.  I then added my printer and the icon that it is now on the page, but the generic icon is still there.  When I select this icon, I don't seem to be able to remove.

  It could be that this is a transient condition, but it's still annoying to have this icon (which is now useless).  What can I do?

  Hello

  I suggest you follow the steps to remove the printer and install the printer wirelessly from the link and check if the problem persists.

• OfficeJet Pro 8620 appearing does not in devices and printers

  Short computer news:

  Computer 1 - ENVY HP dv7 running 64-bit Windows to 8.1

  Computer 2 - Dell XPS 12 running 64-bit Windows 8

  I recently bought a new 8620 Pro of Officejet and currently am having problems actually use it.

  

  I have already installed the driver for long from the HP website, but the printer does not appear in devices and printers. Not only, I'm unable to send print jobs to the printer from my computer.

  

  

  However, the thing that is most troublesome is the appearance of the printer in places such as Device Manager and the print dialog box. I would like to remind that even using the print dialog box or print through any application (E.g. Microsoft Word) in fact the print job never crosses.

  I already reinstalled the driver several times only to get virtually identical results. This problem only seems to occur on my computer main use who WANT a HP dv7.

  I have however a second computer is a Dell XPS 14 where I can use the printer very well.

  With the results of the SFC is not not a complete success and the issue be isolated to this computer, I think that it is time to perform a Refresh of the Windows 8 operating system.

  How to refresh, reset or restore your PC<>

  It would be wise to perform a backup system to be on the safe side.

• Devices and printers in Control Panel

  After the judgment of my HP Deskjet F4580 impression, I uninstalled in the box devices and printers in Control Panel but before could not reinstall it.  I downloaded HP Print and Scan doctor and it fixed my problem and the printer works now.
