    Hello Debbie -

    In Windows 11, the XPS Document Writer is hidden and doesn't always show up when you click on add optional features. This should work:

    1. Window+R

    2. Type “optionalfeatures”

    3. Find Microsoft XPS Document Writer 

    4. Check Microsoft XPS Document Writer

    5. Hit OK, let Windows run

    You should now have the XPS Document Writer show as a printer.

    Do the same thing for the XPS Document Viewer.

    Hi Debbie,

    I'm Rodrigo and I'll help you.

    Go to Settings > Apps > Optional features > More Windows features > check the option "Microsoft Print to PDF" to enable the Print to PDF function
