Windows 11
Windows Version 23H2 OS 22631.3235 Has been a Failure to connect to HP LaserJet Pro 400 Color M451dn and HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP 277dw
Many times I have contacted Microsoft, Dell, and HP multiple failures since September, sometimes I could not identify via Windows exactly which printers I have, I was suggested I delete buy another. Using IP does not solve issue.
I have a Windows 10 machine connected with cables that does what I want, and I can use both machines via Apple devices (iPhone 11, iPads) and Windows 10 is on a laptop, wired. Both printers worked when I initially did the upgrade to Windows 11 from Windows 10 (it was eligible)
Can these Failures be explained, solved?

Uninstall all printer software & drivers in Programs & Features in Control Panel. I then remove any residual traces by running printmanagement.msc.

Then download the latest drivers for your printers from the HP website and reinstall all printers.
