@JohnnyAZ Welcome to HP Community!
I understand that you would like to connect the printer through USB.
Do not worry. I will try to fix the issue,
Install the built-in print driver for a USB connection with Windows 10 or Windows 8.
-
In Windows, search for and open Control Panel.
-
Click Devices and Printers, and then click Add a printer.
-
On the Choose a device or printer to add to this PC window, select your printer, click Next, and then follow the on-screen instructions to install the driver. If your printer is not in the list, continue with these steps.
-
Click The printer I want isn't listed, and then select Add a local printer or network printer with manual settings.
-
Click Next.
-
Select Use an existing port (USB001: Virtual printer port for USB), and then click Next.
-
Click Windows Update, and then wait for the print drivers to update.
-
Click HP, Hewlett-Packard, or Hewlett Packard in the Manufacturer pane, and then click the name of your printer in the Printers pane.
-
Click Next, and then follow the on-screen instructions to install the driver.
-
Disconnect the printer USB cable from the computer, and then reconnect the cable.
