Download the Driver:

• Visit the HP Customer Support - Software and Driver Downloads page.
• Enter "HP LaserJet M1120 MFP" in the search box and select your printer model from the list.

Add the Printer and Scanner:

Hi Alden 4,

Thanks for your prompt reply. The latest Mac Os available is macOS 12. Mac OS 14.5 Sonoma isn't available.  Can you enlighten me on this issue?

Hi @Diavi,

Thank you for your response, 

You can try the following steps to see if you can get the scanner working.

Using Apple Software Update

1. Connect your printer to your Mac: Make sure your HP LaserJet M1120 is connected to your Mac either via USB or network.
2. Open System Preferences: Click on the Apple logo in the top-left corner of your screen and select "System Preferences."
3. Go to Printers & Scanners: Click on "Printers & Scanners."
4. Add the Printer: Click the "+" button to add a new printer. Your Mac should automatically detect the HP LaserJet M1120. If drivers are available through Apple, they will be downloaded and installed automatically.

Using HP Easy Start

1. Download HP Easy Start: Visit the HP Software and Driver Downloads page and search for your printer model. You can download "HP Easy Start" from there, which is an automated tool that can help you install the latest drivers.
2. Run HP Easy Start: Follow the instructions in HP Easy Start to install the necessary drivers and software for your printer.

macOS Version Clarification

Regarding macOS 14.5 Sonoma, as of now, macOS 12 Monterey is the latest stable release available to the public. It's possible there may be a misunderstanding or misinformation about macOS versions. The typical progression after Monterey would be macOS 13 Ventura, followed by macOS 14 if Apple follows their usual naming and numbering convention.

I hope this helps.

Take care and have a good day.

Hello Alden,

I have installed the latest driver, but the device is only being recognized as a printer. I tried ImageCapture and Preview, but they're both not recognizing it as a scanner.
