Hi!

 

I have a "Filter failed" error on mac os 10.14.2 after printer firmware update (1805). I tried to remove/add the printer, reset printing system, verify and repair mac permissions, fully uninstall and install HP easy start package, delete files in Library > Printers > HP, delete Library > Printers> PPDs > Contents > Resources. I connected the printer to WIN7 PC, and the printer is works fine, but on my mac it not work now.

@Grover100D, Welcome to HP Support Community!

 

I see that you have issues printing from your Mac Computer, let us try to isolate and resolve the issue-

 

Ensure that the printer is up to date with its firmware and Mac is up to date with its software. If you are unsure you may use the links below to update the printer firmware and Mac software:

Remove and add the printer

Click the Apple menu, and then select System Preferences.

Depending on your operating system version, click Print & Fax, Print & Scan, or Printers & Scanners.

Click the name of your printer, click the Minus sign, and then delete the printer.

 

Select printer and click the minus sign

Click the Plus sign, and then click Add Printer or Scanner.

Click the Use or Print Using box, and then select AirPrint

 

Select AirPrint from the Use menu

Let us try resetting the printing system-

 

  1. Click the Apple menu, and then click System Preferences.

  2. Click Printers & Scanners, Print & Scan, or Print & Fax.

  3. Right-click (or Control + click) anywhere inside the Printers window, and then click Reset printing system.

    Figure : Clicking Reset printing system

    Image: Click Reset printing system
  4. Click Reset or OK.

  5. If prompted, type your username and password, and then click OK.

    The printing system resets.

  6. Turn off the printer, wait 5 seconds, and then turn on the printer.

  7. Wait until the printer is idle and silent.

  8. In the Printers window on the Mac, click the Add button .

  9. Select your printer from the list, and then click Add.

    It might take a few seconds before your printer displays in the Printers list.

Now, re-add the printer and try printing.

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
