Outdated Printer Driver - 8600

[woodtype]

OS 12.5 - Montery • HP 8600

I printed the other day and just yesterday I wasn't able to print and thought I'd uninstall the printer and try fresh. This has worked in the past.

Now the software (HP Easy Start) won't locate a driver. The driver on the website is outdated.

How can I get printing again?

I see that you are facing printing issues with your HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus E-All-In-One Printer - N911g.

Please download and run the HP Print and Scan Doctor on the computer connected to the printer.
1. Download HP Print and Scan Doctor from this link: https://support.hp.com/us-en/help/printscandoctor 
2. Run HPPSdr.exe from the download location on your computer.
3. Once HP Print and Scan Doctor opens, click Start, and then select your printer.
4. If your printer is not in the list, turn it off and on and then click Retry.
5. If there is a connection problem, follow the instructions in HP Print and Scan Doctor.
6. If the screen displays prompting to turn on printer updates, click Yes and continue.
7. If the screen displays prompting to make your printer the default printer, click Yes and continue.
