HP officejet pro 8100 and IMAC 24 with Monterey 

 

I succeeded in getting HP Smart to recognize it and install driver when connected with USB. I installed it using system preferences. Everything seemingly looks fine but when I try to print I get an endless “waiting for printer to become available “ message. I was able to print a printer configuration from the printer utility in Mac but nothing else will work.

2. Then go to Preferences > Printers then Add the printer, follow the steps from the next video:
