My MacBook Pro console is continously showing the message "a wifi flow named com.hp.devicemonitor is ignored (directly reachable target)". Serveal messages per second, since I installed the HP Easy Setup driver for this printer.  I reinstalled the complete package recently, beacause at this forum it was  recommended to do so.  As soon as I deinstall the HP printer driver, the messages dissapear. After reinstallation the messages were  back again.

Hey there! @dwierz, Welcome to HP forums.

 

I understand you keep getting an error a wifi flow named com.hp.devicemonitor is ignored on your MAC.

 

Don't worry I'd like to help.

 

Did you make any changes on your printer or on your MAC.

 

Please uninstall existing printer driver from your Mac and install the latest printer driver from the link below.

 

Refer the link to uninstall printer drivers from Mac.

Please let me know the outcome.

Have a great day!
