Windows 10: How can I pin a peripheral to the Start Menu on Windows 10?

I can access my HPS PSC 750 through:

Control Panel > All Control Panel Items > Devices and Printers > HP PSC 750

I can't find a way to pin this to the Start Menu the same place where users log out or shut down. There is no pin-to-start in the context menu.

I can ctrl-drag it to the desktop, but I can't ctrl-drag it to the Start Menu.

None of the suggestions at the following page help: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-start-winpc/how-can-i-add-shortcuts-to-the-windows-10-start/cd53f04c-ea86-4565-b502-d17bc00fb1b8

I even copied the shortcut from the desktop to folder C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs, but still no pin-to-start in the context menu.

I have limited success after the last step above by clicking Start, panning down to the HP PSC 750 icon, right-clicking, and choosing Pin-to-start. It creates a tile on the right side of the start menu. But I really want it small and unobtrusive, to the left, where users sign out, hibernate, sleep, or shutdown.
