Hello,

I am new to this platform and seeking assistance with a vexing printer issue before resorting to drastic measures…

A while back, my trusty HP Photosmart D7360 printer – despite its vintage charm and reliable performance – began exhibiting a peculiar habit of spontaneously springing to life and churning out nonsensical printouts. At first, I suspected a potential driver hiccup, prompting me to take the drastic step of uninstalling and reinstalling the printer, hoping to refresh the drivers in the process.

Initially, this workaround seemed effective, bringing respite from the bizarre printing episodes. However, to my dismay, the problem resurfaced a couple of weeks ago, plunging me into a maddening cycle of printer woes. A fellow user on a different forum hinted at the possibility of a rogue Windows update wreaking havoc on the printer drivers. Could this really be the culprit? How can I tackle this tech conundrum? Are there others grappling with a similar predicament?

I appreciate any guidance and insights on this confounding printer puzzle.
