Same as the 1,000,000's of other users of HP printers that now no longer work after updating to Mac OS 11.0.1
Please can HP acknowledge the problem and give us a timetable as to its rectification
Thanks

Hi,
Please follow below version of HP Easy Start, as soon as it launches open the top HP Easy Scan menu and select Uninstall HP Software.
Follow the steps on screen and then click on Set Up New Device and follow the steps to reinstall the printer:

We can initiate a scan with this software, see the ink levels and get printer information across the network
BUT
we still can't print because there is no driver for OS 11.0.1 Big Sur
Our Printers were working before upgrading our Mac software, so this is a HP driver issue.
When will this be acknowledged and a functional driver supplied ?
PLEASE, my HP3050 until one month ago was great!

HI @LJ1200owner and @Baka_Saru
Please follow below version of the HP Easy Start Utility:
https://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib/software12/HP_Quick_Start/osx/Applications/HP_Easy_Start.app.zip
As soon as you open HP Easy Start, click the top HP Easy Start menu and select Uninstall HP Software...
Read any warnings that display, and then click Continue. When prompted, type your administrator user name and password and follow the steps on screen.
Click Set Up New Device, and then follow the instructions to reinstall your printer with HP Easy Start
If the installation fails from any reason, open HP Easy Start again, from the HP Easy Start menu select Preferences.
Click on HP Easy Start.log and the log folder will launch, please reply me back with the log file attached.
