Key notes
One time or the other, every user of abrowser or web-based applicationwould have encountered error 410. It is experienced whenever you are trying to access a file that is no longer available on the server.
It is similar to error 404 which is also caused by a missing file, but the major difference is thaterror 404 is only temporary.
Most of the time, error 410 is returned when the URL of the page you’re trying to access is incorrect.
What are the different formats of error 410?
This error can be displayed in different formats depending on the browser and the nature of the issue.
What is Error 410 when printing?
For remote printing, Google launchedthe Google Cloud Print (GCP)which allows people with a Gmail account to connect and print files within seconds from anywhere.
This service was discontinued in January 2021. That is why users now get the Error 410 when printing because the URL does not exist anymore.
To fix this, simply try alternative cloud printing applications such as the Microsoft Universal Print connector.
