Printer is offline and not discoverable

[Don5]

I took my computer to another city to do some work and now have returned to home and my printer was offline, I deleted the printer and now even though avast can see the printer on my network when I go to try and install the printer Windows 11 can't find the printer.  I have taken the avast firewall off and still unable to see the printer to install it.

I have never experienced this (and currently not running win11), so I did a search:

The first hit might help (don't know if your printer is directly connected or WiFi etc. :

I eventually rebooted our router and that seemed to do the trick.  Thank you
