It should have at least found the Epson printer and the router. I was hoping it would find the old HP printer, so I would know what its IP is. Not really. With the options you used, it will only find them if

try:
nmap -n 192.168.1.*
That's no help either.

No that's the full output if you scan a network with no devices on it:
# nmap -sP 192.168.178.* Starting Nmap 7.70 ( https://nmap.org ) at 2021-08-04 13:28 BST Nmap done: 256 IP addresses (0 hosts up) scanned in 206.22 seconds #
Notice that you pasted the next '#' symbol, you pasted from prompt to prompt in a single mouse sweep. That's proof.
Well I know what you mean, but you're wrong actually. What it means is that I carefully edited my posting to look like that, specifically to give the impression that was what it looked like. In reality there was the name of my host before the # mark, which I edited out. So don't believe everything you see. My point was just to emphasise that what doug posted quite possibly was the complete output and not as you claimed "And the rest of the text? Surely it doesn't stop suddenly, it prints pages of text." But why nmap didn't find any hosts at all is a puzzle. Even on a network where only the gateway is visble, it prints the gateway details. It was only on a non-existent network I got that result.
He did not post proof, and he said something impossible about a Dell computer. Where are the messages from nmap pertaining to that Dell? I want proofs about what he says of the Dell.
I do not want interpretations of what is happening, what he THINKS is happening. I want the commands full output showing proof. We will then draw our own conclusions.
Yeah, you have my sympathies.
