Windows explorer list my all-in-one printer as "J" drive. Is this normal? I don't remember seeing this before.

Some printers have a Memory card slot which make printing pictures easy and direct, even when not in use it can be recognized as "Removable Drive". May I ask what brand and model your Printer is?

Lexmark. I got my head out of my backside, uninstalled the printer rebooted and now it listed as a printer.
