Printer Not Discoverable After iOS 11 Install

I updated to iOS 11. Now a printer I used to print via my iPad is no longer seen by my iPad. My iPhone (which I didn’t update to 11) still sees the printer...My MacBook still sees it as well.

Printer:
HP 6600 Office jet

I have a second printer, HP 6700, and the iPad does see it. It’s specific to that printer.

Any ideas?

I discovered this very thing earlier today when I needed to print out a business letter. I was unable to AirPrint via my iPhone and my iPad Pro like I typically do and ended up switching to my old MacBook since that same printer is tethered to it. I know I was able to AirPrint using Dev Beta 1 and I’m sure the next beta update will cause it to work again.

...By the way...This is no longer a problem for me. I used Public Beta 4 now, but I believe it started working again in Beta 3 as well

Yay!
