Windows 11 Broke Wireless Printing - Wireless Printer Offline

After the latest Windows 11 Updates (KB5012170 and/or KB5016629), my wireless printer will not print from my Windows 11 PC. The printer is listed on my Windows 11 machine as offline. The printer is not offline. I can print wirelessly from Windows 10 & MacBook computers without issue.

Can you provide a fix/work-around so Windows 11 machines can print to a wireless PC?
