I tried what you said and it did not work.
Canon MP495 printer
Windows 10 upgraded on my computer. Afterwards my printer will not print right. I think it is the spooler because it only prints every other line?
I don't know how to fix it? I am so sorry I upgraded to windows 10 in the first place. Every time they upgrade I have problems. They are not worth it. I tried to downgrade but was told I could not. Please, how do I fix this problem?

Right-click Start and select Run.
In the Run dialog box, type in control printers and press OK.
Locate your printer in the Printers section, Right click it and select Remove device.
Restart your PC.
If you have a setup media of the Printer driver(This is usually a CD or Setup program supplied with the Printer), run the utility and let the Printer Install.
If you do not have a setup media, try adding a printer manually using "add a printer" button in the menu bar. It should automatically detect and Install the Printer.
After the Printer Installs, try printing a test page to see if it works as desired.
Retry the task again.
