Back to square 1. Thanks for the detailed procedure on uninstalling and reinstalling; everything went well except the driver still would not install. When trying to install the driver, i received the Error message: Printer could not be detected in the network. (WLAN). checked the printer WLAN settings; Ipv4 address is 192.168.0.24. I pinged that address and all packets were sent and received OK. I have 2 android phones that print on my MX922 ok. I have another win11 laptop that also prints there ok.
