I am still struggling. When I click the link for "HP Printer - Uninstalling HP Printer Software (Mac)" I get nothing - no document and no steps. I am running Mojave 10.14.3 on a Macbook Pro. I can see my printer when it is connected with the USB cord (of course) but before I upgraded to Mojave I was connected through just through the ethernet cord connected to the printer and on my network. Once I disconnect the USB cord I cannot connect it to my Mac without manually entering the IP address. It does not show up in devices. Any help here would be much appreciated.

Connect the Ethernet cable to the printer and to the router, switch, or hub

2.) On your Mac, click the Apple menu, click System Preferences, and then click Print & Scan or Printers & Scanners.

3.) Check if your printer name displays in the Printers list, If your printer is listed, click the printer name, click the minus sign to delete the printer.

4.) If you see multiple printer queues for the same printer, remove all extra printers by selecting them one at a time, and then clicking the minus button  at the bottom of the list.

6.) Click the Use or Print Using menu, select AirPrint in the pop-up menu. Then click Add.
