How to make an old printer work in Windows 10?

Question

Windows

Printer Canon LBP-810. The official website has drivers only for Windows 7. 10 recognizes it, but it is not in the list of printers. And you can't add it there using standard Windows tools. How to be?

Answer 1

On 32-bit Windows 10, the driver for Windows 7 32-bit from the Canon website gets up as native. There are no drivers for 64-bit and are not expected.
There are many different systems on my computer for experiments. There are Canon LBP-810 and Canon LBP-1120 printers. Both printers are so simple and so easy to refuel and maintain, and the components cost a penny that you can’t raise your hand to throw them away. To print from Windows 7, 8.1, 10 x64 and various Linux (although there is a native driver for Linux, but it seemed to me somehow crooked and I decided not to use it), I installed VirtualBox and it had Windows XP 32 bit (that would be Windows XP 32 bit was visible on the network in the network settings, select "network bridge"). In Windows XP 32 bit installed a printer. Once you install Windows XP 32 bit in a virtual machine, then you can simply connect this image to other systems, respectively, create a disk image on a disk that is accessible from other systems. Since it cannot be printed directly over the network (due to the lack of drivers), I installed a 32 bit printer in Windows XP, which has drivers in Windows 7, 8.1, 10 x64, Linux. For example, something like HP LaserJet 4100 PS (postscript is needed). Using Ghostscript (I used version 8.70, there were problems with older ones) and RedMon 1.9 - Redirection Port Monitor printing from HP LaserJet 4100 PS is redirected to Canon LBP-810. It is worth setting up once and printing over the network without problems. The solution is not mine, here it is described in more detail: 9 - Redirection Port Monitor printing from HP LaserJet 4100 PS is redirected to Canon LBP-810.

Put it in a virtual machine on 7k and forward it to the main axis.
Hemorrhagic yes. but it will work.
