Thank you for reaching out! 

Your HP LaserJet P1102w printer can work seamlessly with Windows 11 Home — it just needs a little setup to get everything running smoothly. Let’s walk through it together: 

1: Start fresh with the right drivers
Visit the HP Support Website and search for LaserJet P1102w. Download the latest drivers and software — think of this as giving your printer the exact tools it needs to communicate clearly with Windows 11.

2: Let Windows take the lead
When you plug in the printer via USB or connect it to the same Wi-Fi network, Windows 11 often recognizes it automatically. You might notice a quick notification pop up — that’s your system quietly setting things up in the background.

3: Add it manually (if needed)
If your printer doesn’t show up right away, you can guide Windows to find it:

1. Open Settings → Bluetooth & Devices → Printers & Scanners.

2. Click Add Device and follow the steps.

3. If it still doesn’t appear, select “The printer that I want isn’t listed” and follow the manual setup prompts — it’s just like pointing your PC in the right direction.

4: Go wireless for convenience
For wireless printing, ensure the printer is connected to your Wi-Fi network. You can set this up directly from the printer’s panel or through the HP Smart app, which gives you easy, on-screen guidance.

Do let me know how it goes — I’ll be here to guide you if you need a hand along the way. Please keep me posted on your progress.
