Hi @OldUser5,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community!

 

I understand your concern about future macOS updates no longer supporting the traditional HP printer driver for your HP OfficeJet Pro 8710.

 

For this printer, the preferred solution on newer versions of macOS is Apple AirPrint, rather than relying on an older HP-specific driver. 

 

HP recommends using the HP app, Apple AirPrint, or the built-in macOS printer driver when a specific HP driver is not available for the installed macOS version. 

 

Please try this:

  • Make sure the OfficeJet Pro 8710 and Mac are connected to the same Wi-Fi network.
  • On your Mac, go to System Settings > Printers & Scanners.
  • Select Add Printer, Scanner, or Fax.
  • Select your HP OfficeJet Pro 8710.
  • If AirPrint appears in the Use field, select it and add the printer.

AirPrint does not require a separate printer driver and is built into macOS, so this is the best option for continued printing across future macOS updates.

 

Best regards,
