@DCWX, Welcome to the HP Support Community!  

Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding your MFP 281fdw printer! 

We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.  

The issue you're facing is likely due to macOS 15 no longer supporting HP Easy Scan. Apple updates can sometimes cause compatibility issues with older applications.

Not to worry! Here are a few things you can try:

Use Apple's Built-in Scanner Tool

Go to System Settings > Printers & Scanners

Select your HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M281fdw

Click Scan > Open Scanner and check if it works

Try HP Smart App

HP Smart is the latest app for printing and scanning with HP devices

You can download it from the Mac App Store here

Once installed, add your printer and test scanning

Check for HP Software Updates

Visit the HP Support website and enter your printer model

Download any available updates for macOS 15

Let me know if any of these solutions work for you! If you're still having trouble, we can explore other options.  

Take care, and have an amazing day!
