HP LaserJet Pro MFP M428fdw
Microsoft Windows 11

Hello, I recently upgraded to Windows 11 but the Laserjet Pro MFP M428fdw printer does not print when I upload the Lenovo Ideapad Flex 5 computer. The system detects the printer but does not allow me to print, I have to run the HP Print Scan Doctor Downloader program - HP LaserJet Pro M428f-M429f and this fixes it for me.
I have reinstalled the printer program and the drivers and nothing fixes it.

Are you connecting via network or USB? If network, I suggest that you use the HP Universal Print Driver.

I would suggest that if possible you attach the printer to your network. This will allow for easier printing connection and allow you to use scan to folder instead of relying on a program on the computer to scan.
