Strange issue. Bought a new W11 Dell laptop.
Installed my Brother wireless printer. Let Microsoft install own driver. Worked well for awhile, then suddenly printer started printing when I didn't tell it to. So, installed driver from Brother site and all was fine. But recently random printing started again. I was surprised to see the MS. Driver was back again. So I reinstalled the Brother driver, but MS. Driver is not replaced. Ideas?
Is there a way to uninstall the MS driver and THEN install the Brother driver? The only thing I saw was to uninstall the Device.
