When I connected my printer to my PC via USB cable the printer was installed automatically as "HP Laser Jet 1100 series with an amber triangle.
I launched the troubleshooter. It found "p1100 USB EWS device driver has a driver problem".
I clicked on the message.
The troubleshooter found "HP Laser Jet p1109w is not the default printer"
I clicked on do not fix as my other printer is the default.
I then looked at the troubleshooting report.
Besides the default notification, It showed "Problem with PnP devices detected"
"Problem with printer detected"
I Clicked on "Next" and then "Close".
I Clicked on "Properties" on the printer list.
I Clicked on the "Hardware" Tab.
In the "Functions" list it showed
"p1109w USB EWS Device Driver" and has an amber triangle next to it. All other entries were fine.
I Clicked on "Properties"
Under "Device Status" it showed
"Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing. Code 39"
"Object Name not found"
I was able to print a test page. I just don't like having mysterious things associated with my printer.
Can you help me with this?
