ip4000 printer and Windows 10

[Gfarley]

I have upgraded to Windows 10 and am trying to get my old (but still functioning) ip4000 to keep working.
I downloaded the XP 64bit driver and managed to install it using USB001 so that the printer appears in Control Panel/Devices and Printers.
But when I try to print to it, I get an error message that the printer could not print. The print job is stuck in the queue.
Also, when I plug the printer into any USB port I get the message "USB device not recognized."
I feel like I am very close but what is missing?

Try getting your driver from here:

or here:

I have a very old Canon IP1600 printer that works very well with Windows 10 FWIW.

Good luck.

Thanks, but I have the correct driver (there is NO Windows 10 driver but many have used the XP 64 driver successfully with W10.) My problem occurs after the driver is installed.
