HP Photosmart C3180 printer on my Windows 11

[kotexsrl]

Hi, 

I'm trying to install the printer software for an HP Photosmart C3180 printer on my Windows 11 computer. However, when I go to download the software, it seems as though only up until Windows 10 is supported for this printer. What can I do?

Thanks!
