Hi @adsong,

Welcome to the HP Support Community.
 

Thank you for posting your query. I will be glad to help you.

Yes. HP recommends updating to the latest drivers for full functionality, especially scanning and advanced print features.

Steps to Update HP Drivers

  1. Go to HP’s official support page:
    HP OfficeJet Pro 8720 All-in-One Printer series Software and Driver Downloads | HP® Support
     
  2. Select your macOS version. Install HP App (e.g., macOS 14 Sonoma or newer).
     
  3. Download HP Easy Start:
    • This is HP’s official installer that automatically detects your printer and installs the correct drivers.
       
  4. Run HP Easy Start and follow the on-screen instructions to complete setup.

 

I hope this helps.

 

Take care and have an amazing day!
