My computer Mac OS sequoia 15.1.6  tells me that its last update won't take my HP printer Office Jet 6950 driver.

I have to contact HP. How do I talk to someone ?

Hi @ZEKAT,

Welcome to the HP Support Community.
 

Thank you for posting your query. I will be glad to help you.

Your HP OfficeJet 6950 is compatible with macOS Sequoia, but Apple’s recent updates sometimes block older printer drivers. You do not need a new printer; macOS Sequoia introduced new security and driver handling rules. Older HP drivers may not load, but your HP OfficeJet 6950 is supported. You do not need a new printer.

Let’s fix this together

Imagine your printer as a loyal helper waiting at the door, but macOS changed the lock. We’ll give it the right key:

Step 1: Remove Old Printer

• Go to System Settings > Printers & Scanners.
• Select your printer and click Remove.

Step 2: Download HP Easy Start

• This is HP’s official installer for macOS Sequoia. 👉 HP OfficeJet 6950 All-in-One Printer series Software and Driver Downloads | HP® Support

Run it and follow the on-screen steps; it feels like guiding your printer back home.

Step 3: Install HP App

• From the Mac App Store, HP App – For HP Printers, Laptops, and Tech Accessories | HP® Official Site.
• Open the HP app, sign in, and add your printer.

Step 4: Update macOS & Printer Firmware

• Ensure macOS is fully updated.
• On the printer: Settings > Printer Maintenance > Update Printer.

I hope this helps.

Take care and have an amazing day!
