    Computer won't recognise any printers


    I had my laptop, running Windows 11 Home version 10.0.22621 and plugged it into a printer yesterday HP Laserjet e52645. It wouldn't recognise it and I have been using it daily for weeks. I removed the device in Printers & Settings, and when I asked it to Add a Printer or Scanner, it would not recognise it. I tried also to install it with HP's installation software and it would not recognise that the printer was connected via USB.Today, I took my laptop to another site and plugged it into a Brother HL-2040, an old printer which was already installed and I have been using for ages.
