Recently I tried to connect a Windows 11 laptop to a shared printer on the network (it's a Brother MFC-7340 shared on another Windows 11 PC). I installed the drivers on the server computer and I am able to print from it using the USB connection. On the client computer, when I try to connect I IMMEDIATELY get an error that it cannot be installed. The details show error 0x0000011b.
So far, everything I found on the internet has to do with a Microsoft update (KB5005655) but that update is NOT on the two machines I'm getting this error on. I tried doing the registry method as well and it didn't work.
I see nothing in the event logs about this failure to install so I am only able to go on this error code. Can anyone offer suggestions how to get past this error and get this printer installed?
