Check whether TPM is present and enabled first:

  1. In Windows, open Settings > Update & Security > Windows Security > Device Security.
    • If Security processor appears, open Security processor details and check Specification version.
    • If it shows 2.0, TPM 2.0 is available.
    • If there is no Security processor section, TPM may be disabled.
  2. Or press Windows key + R, type tpm.msc, and press Enter.
    • If it says Compatible TPM cannot be found, TPM may be disabled in UEFI/BIOS.
    • If TPM is found, check Specification Version.
  3. To enable TPM, go to Settings > Update & Security > Recovery > Restart now. Then open: Troubleshoot > Advanced options > UEFI Firmware Settings > Restart
  4. In UEFI/BIOS, look under menus such as Advanced, Security, or Trusted Computing. The TPM setting may be named:
    • Security Device
    • Security Device Support
    • TPM State
    • AMD fTPM switch
    • AMD PSP fTPM
    • Intel PTT
    • Intel Platform Trust Technology
  5. If TPM still does not appear:
    • Check whether a BIOS/firmware update is available from the motherboard or PC manufacturer.
    • If Windows shows TPM error messages in Windows Security > Device Security > Security processor troubleshooting, follow that guidance.
    • If the motherboard does not support TPM 2.0, it may not be available to enable.

The printer issue is separate from TPM.

    Hi ,

    Search for msinfo32.exe in the search bar, take a screenshot, and post it here so we can see the correct laptop model or desktop configuration.

    What is the printer model?

    Thanks
