Hello everyone! I have the following problem:

I'm not able to set my old printer with windows 11. When I'm trying to use HP Smart it doesn't see my printer and error occurs "printer is not found". I tried to install previous driver and I also used the link which I have found for windows 10 (usb driver) but still facing same issue. Please advise how to install driver compatible with windows 11 as my laptop system doesn't see through settings, hp smart or Microsoft, many thanks
