Go to 'Settings' -> 'Bluetooth & devices' -> 'Printers & scanners'. Select the printer and click 'Remove'. Then, click 'Add device' and follow the on-screen instructions to reinstall the printer. Ensure you have the latest drivers during reinstallation. For network printers, try adding the printer using its IP address instead of relying on automatic discovery.
