"Windows cannot connect to the printer" [Operation Failed with error 0x0000070c]

Afternoon all,

Running on Windows 10 Pro.

I am trying to connect to a Windows 7 pc which has a HP LaserJet 1020 printer connected. It is properly shared as another Win 10 Home addition pc is able to connect and print to it.

We keep getting the following error when we try and connect : "Windows cannot connect to the printer" [Operation Failed with error 0x0000070c]

Does anyone have a solution please?

Much appreciated
