After a clean install of OS and turning off the firewall, the printer is now working.

Thank you for your replies.

 

 

I think I can print a test page/indo page from the printer directly. If that doesn’t work I’ll run the power shell thanks.

I don’t seem to be able to get it past this, even after adding to allow list of Malwarebytes.

 

I actually don’t have this in the registry which I think is very odd. I deleted one that said upgrade but not POSTSP upgrade.

I probably didn’t use the right terminology. My destop PC is connected to the internet with an ethernet cable to the modem. I think when the printer was working it was a network connection.

Can you have a laptop and cell phone connected by wifi and a hard wired PC also connected to the printer in Windows 11 Pro 23H2?

 

 

 

Thanks for your reply.

Ok. Thanks for the explanation.  I see you can use the device manager to track down the files in the backup folder.

I don’t have a good grasp of cmd prompt format. I exported my drivers using dism and it worked like a charm. What would the cmd promt be for importing them back in the case of a reinstall, if one should need to? (I would try a system image first).

Thanks.  What does waiting a one half mean?
