hi
I have problem when trying to install the HP envy 5540 printer on windows 11
I use USB connection
I try the driver on the HP site but there is two case
The Envy can print but can t scan
or the envy 5540 can scan but is not detected as a printer
In the two case the installation programm is stuck on the last part because of a browser imcompatibility on the register parts
Is this printer really compatible with Windows 11 ?
Is there a way to solve this problem ? My printer is only detected as a scanner for now . I am unable to print anything
