I have updated the printer drivers and all software, but it keeps waking.

Welcome to the HP support community.
I understand that your printer keeps waking up your computer, I am glad to assist you.
Follow these steps to disable the HP Printer Health Monitor which will fix this issue.
- Open the Devices and Printers folder, right-click the HP UPD, and then select Properties.
- Click the Device Settings tab.
- In the Installable Options section, set Printer Status Notification to either Enable or Disable.
- Click OK.
Let me know how it goes.
To thank me for my efforts to help you, please mark my post as an accepted solution so that it benefits several others.
Cheers.

Thank you for your response. In Devices and Printers, there is no HP UDP, but I right-clicked on the icon for my HP Envy printer and chose properties. But there was no Device Settings tab, just General, Hardware and Web Services. Therefor I can not locate an option for Installable Options or Printer Status Notification.
