Microsoft kills off third party drivers in Windows
Mopria is King Software King of the World Microsoft is axing third-party printer drivers in Windows and replacing them all with the Mopria standard. The timeline for the end of servicing stretches into 2027 and maybe longer if an important customer has printers lacking Mopria support. For those not in the know, Mopria was 2013 by Canon, HP, Samsung and Xerox. It provides universal standards for printing and scanning. Epson, Lexmark, Adobe and Microsoft have also joined the gang since then.

Re: Microsoft to end print driver support
Microsoft has too many other priorities than supporting printers, scanners, and other peripherals. It's only logical that they would want to support one printer standard. I predict they will also want to support only one standard for document scanners.
