When trying to install via USB to my HP laptop, running Windows 11, I get to printer connection. It originally says connected please wait, after a while it will say printer not detected check the connection. I unplug and replug the USB, it says printer detected, then again after a while it says check the connection, I have ran test page and it printed fine.
