After updating older machines (2 yrs old) to the new version of windows 11(had previous version of windows 11 installed) or setting up new machines purchased earlier this month that have the new version of windows 11 installed I am no longer able to add printers from my print server. The error message I get is:

Operation cannot be completed (error 0x00000709). Double check the printer name and make sure that the printer is connected to the network. Has anyone else encountered this issue and is there a fix???

    I tried everything, did not worked.

    It was a network printer. I had to install the printer via cmd as admin with this command:

    rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /in /n"\ServerName\PrinterName"

    Thanks all for your input! This topic, together with blog post about printer error 0x00000709 helped me fix this issue. Finally. I did not realize I also had to do some settings on the sharing computer :D

    I had the same problem with 4 of my PC's. 3 were win11 and 1 win10. The easiest fix for me was uninstall the printer then reinstall. They all worked fine afterwords. I have a multiple Chromebooks and they never had this problem.
