HP Officejet Pro 6830
Mac OS X 10.11 El Capitan

Hi have just purchsed the HP officejet Pro 6830 and during set up found that the current operating system (Mac El Capitain) doesn't support this printer. FRUSTRATING! Any suggestions i.e. can I download other software that will support the printer or do I need to return it and get a different printer?
