Understood.
And at what point does it not connect? Have you tried any troubleshooting?
Customer Reply
When I used the setting it did not recognize any printer, although I connected it

Please on your Computer open Settings > System > Troubleshoot > Other troubleshooters. Here, you will find the Printer troubleshooter among the list of Windows troubleshooters. Click on the Run button next to it to activate it.

No.
You neet to press the Windows sign in the left bottom corner of your screen
And there you can select settings.

Okay, sometimes after adding a printer a reboot is needed.
Please reboot your computer and then try to connect your printer again.
