I got a new laptop running Big Sur, and I've just spent a couple of hours reading answers here, updating firmware, uninstalling and installing, and restarting. My HP OfficeJet Pro won't print from my laptop running Big Sur.
I understand this is a known problem. Is HP planning to address this issue?

Thanks, Antdude. I read all your posts. I can't figure out how to set up AirPrint. I've uninstalled and re-installed the printer, but I don't see an option to set up AirPrint. I'd appreciate any guidance you could offer.
The laptop seems to be talking to the printer, but every time I send a print job, I get a dialogue saying the job is complete when it hasn't even started.
This is a crazy problem. It's a very popular printer, and I know a lot of people are having this issue.

Weird. I assume you used https://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/hp-officejet-pro-8600-premium-e-all-in-one-printer-... (Easy Start). What about https://123.hp.com/us/en/devices/ojpro8600? Do you have another Apple device (iPhone,another Mac, iPad, etc.) that can do AirPrint? If so, then does that work?

Yup, the joys of upgradings. FYI. I upgraded HP's printer drivers in macOS Mojave v10.14.6 and it also broke its USB too. 😞
