First, remove the printer: Go to Settings > Bluetooth & devices > Printers & scanners, select your printer, and click 'Remove'. Then, restart your computer. After restarting, go back to the 'Printers & scanners' settings, click 'Add device', and follow the on-screen instructions to reinstall your printer. This ensures a fresh installation and can resolve driver conflicts.
