USB Printer Controller Utility not working
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
I've been using succesfully for a while the USB Printer Controller Utility with a Samsung ML-1520 printer.
Suddenly, the print function stopped working and the Auto-Connect Printer List window did not show my printer any longer - worse, it began beeping a sound periodically, perhaps trying to fetch it around. PC is Windows 10. Thank you for any hint. Stopping the printer server on the router side makes the sound stop altogether
Wireless router is an Archer D7 with firmware 0.9.1 1.1 v002d.0 Build 150824 Rel.40904n - Please note the select drop down lis did not allow me to select "D7" as a model but at most "C7".
USB printer controller utility software version is 1.12.0927
Driver version is 1.75.0

Thank you so much for your reply. Actually, disabling the firewall allows the utility to work. The firewall is from Bitdefender Total Security but I would like not to disable it just to let the printer work. Which settings would you advice to configure? Thanks

Hi,
Thanks for your feedback. Cause it works with the firewall disabled, it had been blocked by it before.
While considering you want to enable the firewall, it is suggested to contact the tech support of the firewall to add the utility into the whitelist and make it work.
May it help and have a nice day.
