Sometime after updating to Win 11 my Canon printer does not respond to my print request. I tried printing from another Windows 10 PC and the printer is still responding to it. So there is no issue with the printer as the message would indicate. What needs to be done to get my printer to print from my windows 11 updated HP PC.

    (#8) what if I did not see any Driver updates for Canon in the Optional updates? All it shows is if I want to update to Windows 11, I have Windows 10.

    I tried this a few times, but it did not fix it. Even tried deleting the content of the printer spooler folder as suggested by others.

    Thank you. The canon site now asks you for the printer model and mine is unsupported. I don't see how to get to the area you indicated without putting in a model number, but will choose the next closest model. I hope I can fix before getting a new model. I have a MF230

    Same issue Win11/Canon. Printer responds to other devices (Win10, Chromebooks, iphones etc).

    Solution: /Services/PrintSpooler "STOP", /Services/PrintSpooler "START".

    No idea why it works. But it does. Every time.
