    Hello

    The error 0x00000040 is a common issue that can occur due to various reasons such as malware infections, driver issues, printer spooler service-related issues, or hardware issues.

     

    Here are a few suggestions that might help:

     

    Run the Printer Troubleshooter: Go to Settings > Update & security > Troubleshoot > Find and fix other problems. Now run the Printer Troubleshooter. The troubleshooter will identify and try to fix the issues automatically.

     

    Repair Corrupted Files: Open cmd.exe with Run as Administrator. Then run the following commands:

    sfc /scannow

    DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth

    DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth

    DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

    Restart your system when all the above is complete and test.

     

    Update or Reinstall Printer Driver: Check if there are any updates available for your printer driver. If not, try uninstalling and reinstalling the printer driver.

     

    Enable Computer Browser and Workstation Services: Press Win+R, type services.msc, enable the service named Computer Browser and workstation. Make sure the status is running.

     

    Flush DNS: Type cmd in the taskbar search box, open as an administrator. Type the following command and press enter to execute: ipconfig/flushdns.
