Hi, I faced an unusual problem with the Windows 11 printing window. When launching the print dialog from any .NET application, it automatically initiates a search for WSD printers on the network. There’s no way to disable network discovery WSD for printers not installed on the machine itself. A GPO exists to turn this off, but it still lists all connected printers. This setting worked in Windows 10, yet it stopped functioning after the Windows 11 update, causing the issue. Our environment is an AD with approximately 1,000 computers and about 300 printers using WSD. Thanks for any advice. Have a great day.
