The 6878 should work fine on 10 or 11 as well as Mac and a lot of other OS.

 

I assume you reset the printer, if not there is a video below


This video might be helpful for the 6978 using the WPS or push button method.

You may need to reset the printer first

Let me know if you have a flex system (WiFi boosters or repeaters) as the setup is much more complicated.
