Welcome to the HP Support Community. I'd be happy to assist you with the driver issue.  

  

HP Laserjet MFP M436N drivers are not available from the HP website or Apple Software Update. However, Gutenprint (formerly called Gimp-Print) provides open-source basic print drivers for many printers that would otherwise not be supported in Mac OS X. To see if your printer is supported, go to Gutenprint drivers for more information. 

NOTE: Gutenprint drivers are not supported by HP or Apple. 

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.

Thank you for posting back. 

Let's try this:

1. If your printer is connected to your Mac with a cable, disconnect the cable from your Mac. 

2. Turn off your printer. 

3. Get software updates for your Mac. Your Mac automatically downloads the latest software for most printers as part of these updates 

4. Reconnect your printer to your Mac, if applicable. 

5. Turn on your printer and wait for it to finish starting up. 

6. Choose Apple () menu > System Preferences, then click Printers & Scanners. 

7. Select your printer in the list of devices. 

8. If your printer doesn't appear in the list of devices in Printers & Scanners preferences, click+
   at the bottom of the list, then choose the command to add a printer or scanner. 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
