Welcome to the HP Community --
The short answer:
According to what I can find --
You do not install the HP Universal Scan Software" onto any version of MacOS.
"Universal" in this instance means select printer models and select Windows Operating System / versions.
We did not write the code -- we are merely the messenger.
====================================
HP Universal Scan Software
<< Printer Model and Operating System version Dependent >>
When the software is installed, HP Universal Scan Software adds a self-named HP Scan software shortcut to the Desktop.
Note:
Where supported, HPUSS can be installed as standalone or installed after the full feature / full solution printer software.
Open website HP Universal Scan Full Feature Software
If needful, choose a different OS > Open all
Find / Download / Save / Install HP Universal Scan – Full Feature Software and Driver Webpack
After the software is installed, Restart the computer and sign in.
