Win 11 connecting to network shared printer

Trying to add a network shared printer to a Win 11 home laptop. The printer is connected via usb on a Win 10 pro pc & is shared & accessible to the homegroup network. The Win 11 laptop gives a 0x00000709 error when I try to connect through file explorer. The laptop can access other shared files on the pc. All network sharing options are correct.

 

Can't share printer—getting error message

Step 1: Go to store.
Step 2: Buy a less shitty printer.
Step 3: Pick up some beer while you are there.
Step 4: Enjoy both your new printer and your beer.

In all seriousness, I have had more issues with Lexmark printers and their shitty drivers then any other manufacturer, HP is a close second though.

However, if you don't want to get a new printer*Laugh :laugh:, and I can understand that, when my Lexmark was giving me the same troubles in Win7(and Vista) I had to make sure the Windows firewall was ON and the firewall service was enabled and running. After I shared it I could re-disable the firewall and firewall services.

 

win 11 computer cannot connect to server host computer's shared printer, also win 11.

I gave up for a while and today retried a simple step, again. Found the shared printer on Windows 11 Host on the network from the client. Did a simple manual connection by browsing to the printer and received this error message error 0X00004cf. Does this indicate some kind of permission is needed somewhere? I found on the Internet all sorts of suggestions but they were from 2021, which is some time ago. What do you think? If so where do I look?
