Xerox Print and Scan Experience suddenly not working anymore

i found on Xerox support forum a discussion on that subject:
https://forum.support.xerox.com/t5/Copying-Faxing-Scanning/B235-not-found-by-Xerox-Print-and-Scan-Experience/td-p/259903
it looks like we need to wait until Deleted will release a fix for this issue.
Hi Mikey, thanks for this. It worked but only with perseverance: going through these steps, I was prompted to print a test page, which worked, and I was able to display my C405 with the printer name shown as its IP address in the select printer window within XPSE but when I hit the print button in Word to print a word document, it came back with the message Word could not connect to [the IP address].
So I thought I'm no further forward.
BUT then I tried scanning - and it worked - hurrah!
And then I went back and tried printing the document from Word again and bizarrely this time it was able to communicate OK. I don't know what changed since the first attempt. Fingers crossed it will work reliably next time too.
I've been without scanning for 3 months, and without printing for 3 days. I had to go out and buy a new printer this morning to allow me to deal with some business critical printing. I've spoken to Xerox and they only offer to send a technician out to repair my printer (which is clearly not the problem). So I was tearing my hair out!
With this workaround at least I've got the main capabilities back. Thankyou so much.
