Hello,
I am using Windows 11 on my PC and have installed the HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M183fw, including the print and scanner drivers.
The HP Scan app did not detect my printer at first. It was only after restarting the PC that the printer was found by the HP Scan app.
What is wrong with my PC?
I have disabled Windows 11 Fast Startup. I am using a static IPv4 address for the printer and have disabled IPv6. I am using an IP connection in the driver settings.
Kind regards.
Lars
