    You will have to check the device's manufacturer website and check with them. Normally, printers which have been working in Windows 10 should work in Windows 11 too. Newer printers will work in Windows 11 (in most cases). However, the best way is to ask the printer's vendor and you may check their website and see if they have Windows 11 driver.
    One good method is to check the printer's vendor and look for list of compatible printers for Windows 11.

    In most cases, win11 will be supported, unless it is an older printer.

    Hi Bilalahmed-2534,

    The biggest factor is Windows 11 driver and software compatibility. If it doesn't mention this, you should avoid the printer as it's likely to cause you issues when installing and using it.

    I hope this answers your question.
