@himanshu259, Welcome to HP Support Community. 

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you. 

It looks like the HP Smart app has scheduled tasks that might be causing your PC to wake up from sleep. The image you provided shows two tasks related to the printer hardware, both created by HP Inc. These tasks have triggers that could potentially wake your PC.
 

To address this issue, you can try updating the HP Smart app to the latest version. You can download the latest version from the Microsoft Store or directly from the HP Smart website. 

Updating the app might resolve the issue by modifying or removing the problematic scheduled tasks.

If the issue persists, you can manually disable or delete the scheduled tasks using the Task Scheduler in Windows 11. Here's how:

1. Open Task Scheduler: Press Win + R, type taskschd.msc, and press Enter.
2. Locate the HP Smart tasks: Look for tasks related to HP Smart or printer hardware.
3. Disable or delete the tasks: Right-click on the task and choose Disable or Delete.

I hope this helps. 

Take care and have a good day.
