OS Monterey 12.5.1.

[Melissy]

I recently updated my MacBook Pro to OS Monterey 12.5.1 and now I cannot connect to my printer wirelessly. I have tried everything I can think of; the HP Smart App was no help whatsoever. The HP website shows no software or drivers available for my printer, which is odd but may be due to the age of my printer. Any ideas?

Hi @Melissy 

First download and install HP Printer drivers for MacOS from the next link:

https://updates.cdn-apple.com/2021/macos/071-46903-20211101-0BD2764A-901C-41BA-9573-C17B8FDC4D90/Hew...

Then go to Preferences > Printers then Add the printer, follow the steps from the next video:

Thank you. When I click the link, my Mac says the website is not private and cautions me not to go there. Any advice about this?

@Melissy,

Ok, then try with the Apple download driver:

Thank you for the continued offers of assistance. I still receive the same message: "This connection is not private. The website may be impersonating "updates.cdn-apple.com" to steal your personal or financial information. You should go back to the previous page". I have to accept my system's warning.

Hi @Melissy ,

Ok, but both two links provided are from official Apple pages.

I have tried download files from both and I am able to download and install drivers on my Mac 12.5.1

Maybe you need to check your options on Mac or try with another browser like Firefox.

Thanks so much. Using Mozilla I was able to download the driver. For some reason my printer still won’t connect to our wireless network. All our other devices are connected, no problem, but the printer seems to be unable to. Atleast now I can print and scan via hardwire. Thanks for your help.
