Dear All,
If you encounter any printing error like "windows cannot print due to a problem with current printer setup", then here is the solution.
-
Open User Account Control Settings by clicking the Start button
, and then clicking Control Panel. In the search box, type UAC, and then enter. -
Do one of the following:
-
To turn off UAC, move the slider to the Never notify position, and then click OK.
If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
-
- You will need to restart your computer for UAC to be turned off.
Watch the video Here: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/turn-user-account-control-on-off#1TC=windows-7
Now you can print without any issue.
Happy Printing
