Windows Quirk: Latest Update Assigns a Universal Identity to Printers – All Labeled as ‘HP LaserJet’
In a 2021 statistic, HP stands out as the largest manufacturer of consumer printers globally, commanding just under 25 percent of the market. However, despite its significant market share, HP does not hold a monopoly. Last week, Windows users were taken aback when a peculiar issue emerged: all their printers, regardless of the manufacturer, suddenly appeared as “HP LaserJet M101-M106.” The culprit behind this widespread confusion seems to be a Windows update. This update erroneously relabeled the metadata of connected hardware printers, whether directly attached to PCs or over the network. Intriguingly, the update also automatically installed the HP Smart…
In the ongoing debate over the optimal location for AI processing, Microsoft has traditionally leaned towards the cloud. Conversely, major players in the hardware arena—AMD, Intel, and Qualcomm—are championing the idea of bringing AI capabilities directly to personal computers, harnessing the potential of their own processors.
