In any scenario, Windows 11 (version 22H2 and later) can display the printer’s model, serial number, manufacturer, and other information from the Settings app’s printer settings page.
Instead of having to walk to the printer to check the information on the stickers, the device’s complex menu, or by using instructions, this post will show you how to quickly discover the printer information on Windows 11.
