HP Recommended

In May of 2025 I purchased a new HP 655e printer from Staples in Grandville MI.   Attempts to install the printer kept failing becuase of "Driver not Available",   I finally contacted HP technical support.  They that it could not be provided because of IP address issues.   I asked if they could correct/clear the issue.  They said they could but it would cost me $170.00 ,  I agree and the printer was made operational.  That is until last week when I need to print a document and the response with "printer not available".  Further diagnosis reflected "driver not available".   Can you help me understand what is happening and help restore my printer to operation?
