Hi @bubhhbuibiub,

I'd like to help!

I understand you are unable to install your printer on the current mac os.

HP Officejet 4500 All-in-One Printer Series Driver for macOS is not available from the HP website or Apple Software Update. However, Gutenprint (formerly called Gimp-Print) provides open-source basic print drivers for many printers that would otherwise not be supported in macOS Big Sur. To see if your printer is supported, go to Gutenprint drivers for more information.

NOTE: Gutenprint drivers are not supported by HP or Apple.

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
