HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M281fdw
macOS 11.0 Big Sur

I have a MacBook Pro 2013 - Big Sur OS. Which is connected to a HP Colour LaserJet Pro. I've had no issues at all, with connecting the two wirelessly. However, I updated the OS a few weeks ago and now having contining issues. The Mac won't recognise the printer and so it claims to be offline', However, the printer does work via iphones (air print). I've tried all the obvious solutions. But no joy.

 

I'm assuming its to do with the update. Interestingly since then my external HD isn't recognised either (wired).

Any help much appreciated before I throw both out the window.

 

Thanks
