Product: HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M281cdw
Operating System: macOS 12.0 Monterey
My print jobs are stuck in my computer's queue endlessly. The printer doesn't even say that it's trying to print, my computer just isn't sending it. I'm using a MacBook Pro running macOS Monterey on a wifi connection. Also, it only happens from my computer and not any other devices
I've tried
Restarting the printer and my computer (sometimes lets me print once after doing both but the problem stays after)
Diagnose & Fix on HP Smart (doesn't say there is any problems)
Removing and re adding the printer on my computer
Uninstalling drivers/hp smart and re installing
Here is a video of the problem:
Any advice is appreciated thank you so much!
