full disclosure, a "printer hoarder" here

i have several active dinosaur printers running on WIN 10:
- MX700(2007)
- MP980(2008)
- MX870(2010)
- PRO-100(2013)
- stored backup printers: IP4500, MX700, MX860, MX870, MP980

i remember having issues getting them to work on WIN10, but finally got them all working, see:

has anyone been able to get these models working on WIN 11 ?? looks like W10 support drops oct 2025
