Hi @rossyragbag,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community.

 

Thank you for posting your query.

 

I understand that you would like to get a Software for Mac as the Operating System is Catalina.

 

Please be informed that if the drivers are not available for your Printer I would request you to please Universal Printer Driver.: https://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/hp-universal-print-driver-series-for-windows/4157320.

 

I would request you to please follow the below steps to update it.

 

Visit HP Support: 

  • Go to HP Customer Support – Software and Driver Downloads.

Enter Printer Model: 

  • Type HP Envy Photo 6230 in the search box and select it.

Choose OS: 

  • If auto‑detection doesn’t show Catalina, manually select macOS 10.15.

Download Software: 

  • Look for HP Easy Start (or full driver package if listed). Click Download.

Install: 

  • Open the downloaded file, follow on‑screen instructions, and connect your printer via USB or Wi‑Fi during setup.

Complete Setup: 

  • Finish installation, then test printing and scanning.

Install the Driver:

  • Open the downloaded file to launch the driver installer.
  • Follow on-screen instructions to complete the installation process.
  • During installation, ensure your printer is powered on and connected to your Mac via USB or wirelessly.

Hope this helps, Please revert if the issue persists.

 

Take care and have an amazing day!
