Windows 10: Printer

I recently upgraded to Windows 11 and I wasn't able to use my printer because it was causing problems with the Core Isolation. I bought a new printer and keyboard and mouse and its still not meeting the needs of the Core. They are suggesting I buy HP products!!! This needs to be addressed..

To be sure that you followed my suggestion correctly, I will specify some steps: CP>devices and printers>add a printer>the printer that I want isn't listed>add a local printer with manual settings>define port>Windows update and install
