P1102w driver for Mac os 15.1.1

[ferRX]

Hi @AzBob52 

Thanks for doing the steps 😊

Right now, I don`t know 🤔 why your MacOS 15.1.1 is not installing any software.

Maybe you need to apply some updates from MacOS system.

Anyways, as a last resource maybe you could connect your printer with a USB cable and the try to install with the last software that I mention before.

Step 1.  Connect Laserjet with a USB cable

• 

Step 2.  Restart your Macbook

Step 3. Then install the next software:

• >> Laserjet Universal Postscript driver

Best regards,

Again, thanks for trying to help. I agree with the others, None of this is working. I am done trying the work arounds.☹️

Simple solution is for HP to update the Laser jet P1102w driver to work with the current Mac Sequoia OS 15.2.

other way is install a virtual machine and run with a light linux distribution ( ex: debian LDXE ) install hplip drivers:
apt-get install hplip hplip-gui

This fixed it:

I can guide you through the process of modifying the HP driver installer so that it bypasses the macOS Sequoia (15.3.1) compatibility check. Follow these steps carefully:

Step 1: Download the Official HP Mac Printer Driver

1.Go to HP’s official website and download the HP Mac Printer Driver for your HP LaserJet P1102 printer.

2.The downloaded file should be in .dmg format (e.g., HewlettPackardPrinterDrivers.dmg).

---

Step 2: Extract the .pkg File

1.Open the .dmg file by double-clicking it.

2.Inside the mounted volume, find the .pkg file (e.g., HewlettPackardPrinterDrivers.pkg).

3.Copy this .pkg file to a folder on your desktop (or any easy-to-access location).

---

Step 3: Expand the Package

1.Open Terminal (Command + Space → search for “Terminal” → Press Enter).

2.Navigate to the folder where you saved the .pkg file. For example, if it’s on your desktop:

cd ~/Desktop

3.Run the following command to expand the package into a folder:

pkgutil --expand HewlettPackardPrinterDrivers.pkg drivers

This will create a new folder called drivers.

---

Step 4: Modify the Compatibility Check

1.Open the drivers folder.

2.Find the file named Distribution (it has no file extension).

3.Open this file using TextEdit or Visual Studio Code (or any text editor).

4.Locate the following fragment:

system.version.ProductVersion, '15.0'

5.Change 15.0 to 16.0 so that it looks like this:

system.version.ProductVersion, '16.0'

6.Save the file.

---

Step 5: Repack the Installer

1.Back in Terminal, run the following command:

pkgutil --flatten drivers HewlettPackardPrinterDrivers-sequoia.pkg

This will generate a new modified package file called HewlettPackardPrinterDrivers-sequoia.pkg.

2.You can now delete the drivers folder, the original .dmg file, and the original .pkg file:

rm -rf drivers
rm HewlettPackardPrinterDrivers.pkg
rm HewlettPackardPrinterDrivers.dmg

---

Step 6: Install the Modified Package

1.Double-click HewlettPackardPrinterDrivers-sequoia.pkg to start the installation.

2.Follow the installation steps as usual.

3.Restart your Mac after installation is complete.

---

Step 7: Add Your Printer

1. Open System Settings → Printers & Scanners.

2.Click Add Printer (+ button).

3.Select your HP LaserJet P1102 from the list.

4.Choose the correct driver (it should now be available).

5.Click Add.

Your HP LaserJet P1102 should now work as expected on macOS Sequoia 15.3.1!

Let me know if you run into any issues. 🚀
