    Greetings!

    This is Tin, I'm here to help you. May I know what exact error are you getting when trying to print? When did the issue started? Is there any changes made before you got this issue?

    Have you tried to reinstall the printer driver? Here's the link where you can get the printer driver:

    I'll wait for your response.

    Thanks,

    Tin

    If you are unable to print from Word or PDF using your HP M201 printer connected via USB on Windows 11, there are a few potential issues and resolutions to consider:

    1. Driver Issues: Ensure that you have the latest drivers installed for your HP M201 printer. Sometimes, outdated or incompatible drivers can cause printing issues.
    2. USB Connection: Check the USB cable and connection. Make sure the cable is securely connected to both the printer and the computer. If possible, try using a different USB cable or port.
    3. Print Spooler Service: Sometimes, the print spooler service might encounter issues. You can try restarting the print spooler service:
      • Press Windows + R, type services.msc, and press Enter.
      • Find the Print Spooler service, right-click it, and select Restart.
    4. Configuration Problems: If you receive an error like "unexpected configuration problem 0x80070570," it may indicate a configuration issue. You can find troubleshooting steps for this specific error on HP's support site or Microsoft Q&A.
    5. Known Issues: There have been reports of issues with certain updates affecting USB printing. If you have recently installed updates, check if there are any known issues related to USB printing that might apply to your situation. You may need to roll back certain updates or apply a Known Issue Rollback (KIR) if applicable.

    If these steps do not resolve the issue, consider checking the printer's manual or HP's support resources for further assistance.
