Hi @cquinnr2,
Welcome to The HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
I understand you are trying to set up your HP OfficeJet 3830 All-in-One Printer with the Hawking Technology HMPS2U print server on macOS Monterey, you'll need to follow these steps:
1. Install HP Printer Drivers
- macOS Monterey supports AirPrint for most HP printers, eliminating the need for separate drivers. However, if your network setup doesn't support AirPrint:
- Visit HP's Software and Driver Downloads. Software and Drivers for HP OfficeJet 3830 All-in-One Printer series
- Search for "HP OfficeJet 3830."
- Download and install the latest drivers for macOS.
2. Set Up the Hawking HMPS2U Print Server
- Connect the HMPS2U to your network and attach your printer.
- Configure the HMPS2U via its web interface:
- Access the IP address of the print server through your browser (refer to the HMPS2U manual for the default IP).
- Follow the steps to add the HP OfficeJet 3830 as a connected printer.
3. Add the Printer on macOS
Using AirPrint (if supported):
- Go to System Preferences > Printers & Scanners.
- Click the + button to add a printer.
- Select the printer from the list of network printers.
- Choose "AirPrint" as the driver.
Using the HP Driver:
- Follow the same steps to add the printer.
- Select "Use: Select Software" and pick the HP OfficeJet 3830 driver.
4. Verify Printer Functionality
- Print a test page to ensure the printer and server communicate correctly.
Take care and have a good day.
