So just put that in the room, the printer software leaves a lot to be desired. Because for the 6700 at least setup via software is still possible, with the new 8135e this is no longer available, I don't think it's so good to adjust.

Well, "no full driver" could be true for latest MacOS --
I do not have any Mac systems - I do not keep up with the current software setups for MacOS.
To date
Supported versions of Windows
The full driver printer software is available.
True -
- The new full driver software is formatted differently than that of the old 6700. There is no "fix" for that -- the software meets the requirements of the newer system.
- The supported Windows versions are limited. There is no "fix" for that. Older OS versions cannot support the newly formatted software.
and
- There is also a Universal Scan Software -
- If you install the full driver, you do not need to install the Universal Scan Software.
- The system will tolerate both HP Scan / HP Universal Scan being on the system at the same time.
- HP Scan / HP Universal Scan are essentially the same software.

Ask if you need additional "how-to" instructions.
Reminder
This system does not support the HP Printer Assistant shortcut icon on the Desktop .
Look for / use the HP Scan Assistant .
--------------------------------------------------------------
The installation of the full driver generally adds at least one or more shortcuts to the Desktop.
Note: Printer Assistant, HP Scan Assistant, and HP Scan are dependent on printer model and supported software options.
- Printer Assistant – Where still supported as part of the full driver printer software
- HP Scan – Shortcut on Desktop named for the printer model
OR
- HP Scan Assistant – For those printers that no longer provide the Printer Assistant
- HP Scan - Shortcut named for itself
AND / OR
- When installed, HP Universal Scan software adds a separate self-named “HP Scan” shortcut
- NOTE >> If you install the full driver printer software, installing HP Universal Scan as a standalone software from category Software & Drivers is not necessary. The system will allow you to install both.
Printer Assistant shortcut > Tab Scan > Manage Scan to Computer > Enable
Or
HP Scan Assistant shortcut > Manage Scan to Computer > Enable
Example - Desktop Shortcuts
