Microsoft Windows 11 and Xerox Printers

Microsoft Windows 11 is rolling out.  You may have some questions about how to set up or install the print drivers for your Xerox equipment on this new OS. We want to make sure you have all the new information on your printers and drivers and the new Microsoft Windows 11 operating system.

An exceptional resource about the types of drivers compatible with the Windows 11 operating system is the Xerox® Product Compatibility – Windows 11. This document shows you which Xerox printers or multifunction devices are compatible with Windows 11. There is a brief explanation of the different types of drivers at the beginning of the document. Note that the Global Printer Driver is compatible with Windows 11. The compatibility document is helpful, consider bookmarking it so that you can easily return to it when or if you update to Windows 11.

Little has changed about the printer interface and installation from Windows 10 to Windows 11. There are instructions for installing printer drivers in the release notes for the driver for your machine. The support pages also provide you with instructions for installing and configuring the drivers on your specific device.

The rollout of Windows 11 will continue into 2022. Windows 10 is expected to be supported by Microsoft until sometime in late 2025.  Below are some additional resources that you may find helpful as you transition to the new OS.
