Windows Ready Print is Microsoft's biggest overhaul of Windows printing in years
SMRTR summary
Microsoft is overhauling Windows printing with a new framework called Windows Ready Print (WRP), moving away from older third-party drivers toward modern standards like Internet Printing Protocol and eSCL scanning. Starting July 2026, newly installed printers will use WRP by default, though users and IT admins can still switch to traditional drivers. The update, already in Windows 11 Insider builds, aims to make printing more secure and reliable.
