HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus e-All-in-One Printer - N911g
Microsoft Windows 11

When I try to print a document  it prints one line at the top of the first page, then one odd character on the upper left corner of page after page after page until I stop it.

I've tried downloading the "Smart" application and that didn't work. Apparently there are no drivers available for this printer and Windows 11?

Is there a work around to make this all in one printer work with Windows 11?

On the same day I started this thread I found a posting that led me to functioning drivers. I'm not sure who's posting I got it from (was a long and frustrating day) but am thankful for those of you who take time to provide answers. Still, it's baffling to me that neither microsoft or hp provide drivers for these legacy machines on their respective sites. I thought good customer service was just that- servicing the customer. In any case, I'm grateful to you all for taking the time to help out. Thank you!
