<p data-path-to-node="5"><strong data-path-to-node="5" data-index-in-node="0">Description:</strong> In 2026, the primary cause for Xerox "Driver Unavailable" errors is <strong data-path-to-node="5" data-index-in-node="81">SNMP v3 Certificate Mismatch</strong>. The printer is connected to your network, but the computer rejects the data because it lacks the updated 2026 digital security signature.</p>

<p data-path-to-node="6,0,0"><strong data-path-to-node="6,0,0" data-index-in-node="0">The V4 Class Driver Conflict:</strong> Windows 12 often attempts to use a generic "V4 Class Driver" which lacks specific Xerox features (like finishing or advanced scanning), leading to an "Unavailable" status.</p>

<p data-path-to-node="6,1,0"><strong data-path-to-node="6,1,0" data-index-in-node="0">WSD vs. TCP/IP:</strong> Windows defaults to "Web Services for Devices" (WSD) ports, which frequently lose sync during ISP signal refreshes. Switching to a <strong data-path-to-node="6,1,0" data-index-in-node="147">Standard TCP/IP Port</strong> is the most reliable 2026 fix.</p>
