Hi @Kdrl 

Before driver installation just check the USB cable is connected between printer and Mac computer.

Then once all USB cables are checked, go for driver install following the next steps:

 

1.  Please download and install  HP Printer drivers for MacOS from the next link:

2. And go to System Preferences > Printers then Add the printer.

Thank you for the links. I downloaded the driver but still it is not printing anything. Coming out blank white papers. HP smart does not working since this printer is not connected to internet. Any suggestions ?
