I had to get a new printer to replace an old one. I can't get Scan to Computer to turn on, since HP Utility doesn't work on Mac Sonoma. It just says "Unable to communiate with the selected device". I had the old printer working because it was set up before HP decided not to support Mac Sonoma.
Is there another way to get t his turned on? I know it's useless for my mac, but we have windows computers on our network that would like to use the scan to computer function.
