As mentioned in my previous post, this model printer is not compatible with HP Smart app. Use the full-feature printer driver.
If the issue persists, I think this issue needs some additional technical assistance that can be better provided through one-on-one interaction or a remote session with our HP Support team.
Please reach out to the HP Technical Support team in your region for further assistance.
You may create a case on the website to obtain a case number if required. Kindly watch this video to know how.
Keep me posted for any other assistance.

@User032022, Welcome to the HP Support Community! I’m here to help.
This model printer is not compatible with the HP Smart app due to its age.
To know how to connect the printer using a USB cable, refer to - HP printer setup (USB cable)
Click here to download the HP Full-feature driver.
Once downloaded, make sure to run the file to start the installation and follow the on-screen instructions.
Hope this helps! Let me know how it goes.

This means that the computer you are using is not allowing the installation as you are not the Admin.
If this is a company owned computer, you will have to talk to IT department. This is not an issue with the printer.
This model printer is not compatible with HP Smart app.
Keep me posted for any other assistance.
