Welcome to the HP Support Community! We're here to help you get back up and running.

I understand you’re seeing an error each time you attempt to install the HP DeskJet 2910 printer on your iMac, whether connected by wire or Wi‑Fi.

Thank you for sharing that you’ve already tried both connection methods — it’s helpful to know what has been attempted so far.

To better understand the situation, could you confirm a couple of details:

The exact error message or code that appears during installation.

The macOS version currently running on your iMac.

Whether the printer shows up at all in the HP App or in your system’s printer list before the error occurs.

With these details, I’ll be able to guide you more precisely using recommended resources.

We're looking forward to helping you get back up and running!

Regards,

Hawks_Eye
