Printer Connected to a Computer

Windows 7 uses drivers to communicate to various hardware devices connected to your computer, including printers and scanners. Printer manufacturers provide drivers with their products, but also update older drivers to optimize them and add new features. To get the latest version of the driver, roll back the driver to an earlier version or even remove the driver, you must use the Device Manager utility. Sometimes, rolling back the printer driver solves some problems introduced by a new driver version.
