Windows 10: Drivers for Canon PIXMA MG5250 Printer in Win11

After the new update in Win11, the printer lost any contact with the computer at all. Win 11 has no technical support for this printer. There was no problem in Win10. Any suggestions? Because this Win 11 is already pissing me off.

My Canon Pixma MG5250 wont print CD covers since I updated to Windows 10.

I can't even install new drivers now as my computer says it can't detect the printer on the network yet it prints just fine. Any suggestions?
