Windows 11
Last month I did the free Windows 11 Home upgrade to my PC (new in 2020) from the Windows 10 that had come with it. Today I discovered that the other Windows 11 computers in the house can no longer connect to and access the USB printer connected to this machine, since I went from Windows 10 to Windows 11.

If from another computer I try to "add a new printer" the printer is not "seen" from them. When I then go to add it manually from a computer on the network:
  • I can "see" my computer on the network
  • Clicking on my computer, I can "see" the printer and populate it into "select a shared printer by name" from the "add printer" dialog
  • But then when I click NEXT from that dialog I get "Windows cannot connect to the printer. No printers were found"
This is maddening, and I've dealt with this problem whenever something material changes on my computer (the one to which the printer is connected).

Other than the Win10>Win11 upgrade, nothing has changed. And the other computers in the house can still have read access to shared directories and files on my computer.

What printer is involved? I have an HP OfficeJet Pro and HP LaserJet Pro connected by ethernet cable to my Wireless Router, any computer, Win7, Win10, Win11 and Linux whether Wired or Wireless, can use them if they can access the Router. They work for the basics but other features are available when their software is installed.

    …still on a horse.
No much specific info to work with there. Here's the general procedure I use with such issues.

1. From devices where printer will not work, use device manager, under Printers, right click on printer, and uninstall. Be sure to select "remove driver"box.
2. You should no longer see the printer under settings>Bluetooth & Devices>Printers and Scanners. But it you do, remove it there as well.
3 Use Revo Uninstaller Free or some other similar advanced uninstaller to remove any printing software. (I don't uninstall ANY software without using Revo.) After uninstall, within Revo scan for and remove all traces left behind. Revo Uninstaller Free
Restart computer.
4. Probably not necessary, but I then use this method to remove any old unused printers. Traces of them linger in windows over time.
4. Go to the manufacturer and download your printers' latest updated driver/software package and reinstall the printer using "add a printer".
You can use the ip address or computer name of the PC the shared printer is connected to.

For example: \\Computer\Share name of shared printer
or
\\IP address\share name of shared printer

According to the first post the printer is connected to the computer that was upgraded from Win 10 to Win 11. @112022 , I find it easier to connect my printers to my router and not to a computer like @Berton has his printers setup. The only difference is that I use Wi-Fi.

Thanking everyone for suggestions, and I wanted to test them and other ideas. So here's the update:

The good news is that for another Windows 11 computer in the house, that had been able to print to the printer USB connected to mine, but no longer could, I got it to work:
  • Computer now unable to connect to network printer (added the registry keys described, on the host computer)
  • Restarted host computer
  • On the remote computer, I added the printer manually:
    • Printers
    • Add device
    • Select shared printer by name
    • Browse
    • Click on host computer from network view
    • Select printer from that
    • Click "next" from add device dialog
    • Printer is added, and document prints from it
The bad news is that the above worked on one computer, but still has not worked on the computer with which I was originally having problems. When I get to "next" (second-to-last step above) I again get the "no printers were found" message - even though I am selecting the same printer (Canon iP4800 series) from the same computer, as I'd done with the above situation that worked.

And yes, the printer is shared from the host computer (otherwise I'd not have been able to print to it from the one computer from which this works!). And the same computer that cannot access the USB printer CAN read files on the host computer, that have been shared with it.

Have you gone into advanced sharing and selected these options? Also, is the printer turned on?

I was able to print from one remote computer - printer is turned on. And yes, my settings mirror yours:

Tried these?

Yes, everything in that video I tried, and the printer network is correct.

As I've mentioned, I fairly easily got one remote Windows 11 computer to print, while another one isn't responding to anything that has worked.

So it’s a Canon iP4800 series, is it an IP4850? What’s the series model number?

    …still on a horse.
So it’s a Canon iP4800 series, is it an IP4850? What’s the series model number?
I really had to dig on this, looking it up on the e-receipt from 13 years ago. An iP4820 RT.

Since I'm asking for help I probably shouldn't declare something to be relevant or not. But to me, what the printer model is might not matter as much, since I can print to it from one of the two other Windows 11 computers in the house on the home wifi network.

When we start running out of suggestions, it helps to know. There could be a kink somewhere. I like searching online. One never knows.

Have you considered connecting the iP4820 printer to one of the other Windows 11 computers and sharing from there? Even if just to test it can be networked?
If it can, It might suggest a problem with settings or drivers on your PC

I do understand, am aware that one of your printers works fine.

I haven't, for two reasons.

One is that printing - even from my computer - isn't that vital, and in a pinch a remote computer could just save to a pdf, email to me, and print.

The other is that, in the Windows 10 configuration my computer was in until a month ago, everything worked with printing. The only material change was the upgrade to Windows 11.

The point is to rule out your PC. If you don't want to, that's fine.
By connecting this printer to another computer, I'd be interested if it can be shared.
You've tried everything else...
If it isn't important enough to try, I don't get this thread any longer.

Bless 🙏

Problem has been solved.

Computer now unable to connect to network printer (mentioned above) and Computer now unable to connect to network printer were the answers. In short form (details in those two posts), I had to create a registry key on BOTH computers (host and remote), then a number of dword values within the key, saving the results, and restarting the computers. Then it worked.

How's this for irony... those posts are within a thread I myself had created more than a year ago when I'd had the same problem!
