PSC 2355 All in One
Other

I've a new iMac, with mac OS Big Sur and I'm looking for a driver to work with my old PSC 2355 printer.

The latest driver I found on HP support is for Mac OS 10.9

Anyone can help me?

Thanks to all.

Hi,

Try following below version of the HP Easy Start Utility:
https://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib/software12/HP_Quick_Start/osx/Installations/Essentials/ASU/HP_Easy_St...

 

As soon as you open HP Easy Start, click the top HP Easy Start menu and select Uninstall HP Software...
Read any warnings that display, and then click Continue. When prompted, type your administrator user name and password and follow the steps on screen.
Click Set Up New Device, and then follow the instructions to reinstall your printer with HP Easy Start and check if that may work.

 

If HP Easy Start cannot complete your printer installation, from the HP Easy Start menu select Preferences.
Click on HP Easy Start.log and the log folder will launch, please reply me back via a Private Message with the log content attached, please clarify if you may not able to access private messaging.

Also, please try installing below software from Apple:

Next,  open System Preferences, and then open Printers & Scanners to re-add your printer. be sure to select the printer model within the Use drop-down menu.

 

If this fails too, please send me the log then,

Hi Shlomi,
I apologize so much for the delay in replying, but I had run out of printer cartridges and could not test them.
Following your suggestions I was able to set up the PSC 2355 all-in-one printer, but the driver installed, either through HP Easy Start or with the software downloaded from Apple Support, is a generic driver for the PSC 2350 series family and iMac recognizes the printer as a generic laser that allows printing only in black and white, and the choice of color printing does not appear in the menu.
I am attaching screenshots for your vision and I kindly ask you if you have a solution to the problem, which allows me to use color printing as well.
Thanks anyway again for your kindness and your supportScreenshot 2021-02-15 at 11.51.40.pngScreenshot 2021-02-15 at 11.53.22.png

Hello - I also have the PSC2355 and a MacBook with OS X BigSur. 

 

I have tried the suggestions above (HP Easy Start, and Apple support drivers) and can print black and white, but I cannot print in color. Has a solution to this ben identified? 

 

Thanks very much.

ShlomiL, 

 

Thanks for the quick reply. 

I followed the Resolution that you had below (uninstalled all HP software, updated OS X from 11.2.1 to 11.2.2, reinstalled the drivers, and re-added the printer, however I still do not have access to color printing. 

 

I have tried the Self-Test Reports, and do get color prints directly from the printer, but no option to print color from the computer. 

 

I have attached a screenshot below.

@ShlomiL, This issue is still not resolved for me, and I don't have the ability to print in color. Is this known issue for HP? are these older printers compatible with current OS X platforms?
