error message from for cannon printer via printer is: widows host process Rundll32
Running windows trouble shooter says problem not found but then it works IMMEDIATELY
However, if you power cycle the printer then you no longer connect to printer
If you run the trouble shooter again, it will fix the problem after a COUPLE MINUTES.
tracert now works directly to the printer
power cycle printer
tracert now goes directly to the printer
printing now fails
If you run the trouble shooter again, it will fix the problem after a COUPLE MINUTES.
To summarize
trace route goes to 10... times out
won't print
run trouble shooter, it prints IMMEDIATELY, tracert connects
power cycle printer, print fails, tracert connects
run trouble shooter, it prints AFTER A MINUTE, tracert connects
