Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi, I am here again with this question... This printer has compatibility with Windows 10, but printer is working only to the version of win 10 20h2 - including - (I am not sure if FullSolution driver is working on this version too), after upgrading to version 21h2 or 22h2, printer is still there, but printer port, that is virtual USB port (i.e. USB001) is lost... Manual adding of port as Local port with same name is not working, using another virtual port created with other device (HP PSC 1400) is not working, installing only this one printer (without PSC 1400, that could some way block it) on sooner version and then upgrading to version 22h2 or 21h2 is not working, installing driver from Windows Update is not working, because there is no existing port. FullSolution driver that is from year 2016 is not working, it fails...

Only way I was able to make it work was install sooner version of w10 and blocked every marginal update of win10 from 20h2, that is security risk... it actually seems, that this printer needs to create new updated driver. While it is supported for win 10, I would understand that it is not working on older versions of w10, but why is it not updated to new versions? Is on this forum someone, who is working with these drivers? I am actually sure, that there si problem with that virtual port, for me it seems, it is breaking some security features added in21hX or what.

It is really weird, that printer is supported by win 10 from Microsoft and from HP, but I can't use it, because of outdated driver from HP side and because of that printer is recognized as cdrom drive with driver software instead of printer device and so I can't use maybe updated driver that is on Windows Update...

 

THX for any help
