Windows 11 driver for imageCLASS MF4890dw doesn't work

I have an Imageclass mf4890dw printer.  Although it works just fine, I found out that Canon no longer supports it.  I just bought a new PC with Windows 11.  I downloaded the drivers recommended on Canon's website, but when I go to print I get the message "Driver is unavailable."  Is it possible I have to junk this perfectly functional printer?  The website says that these are the drivers for Windows 11.  HELP!!

Ugh, same here! I installed the Windows 11 driver for the imageCLASS MF4890dw, and it just refuses to work properly. Tried everything—reinstalling, compatibility mode, even older drivers—but no luck so far. Really hoping Canon drops a proper update soon. Anyone else find a workaround that actually sticks? It’s like prepping your favorite food and burning it right at the end.

Thank you !  This worked for me!
