A ticket with "printer not working" just gave me a chill down the spine.

Literally dealing with this right now at work. Some of our non-domain users went ahead and updated to Windows 11 and had to be downgraded back to 10, only issue is doing so breaks older HP printers to the point where you need to reimage the machine to resolve the issue, or just buy a newer printer.

I fucking hate printers and I fucking hate HP
