Hello. I am ALSO having the same problem, but it tells me that I need a certain software to print. My version is the OS X Yositime, Version 10.10.5 .

Welcome to HP Forums @Eli_Gonzalez,

Thanks for the post. 

I see you are facing an issue with your printer where you are unable to print from your computer running on MAC OS X 10.10.5.

Don't worry, I will be glad to help. 

Have you tried any troubleshooting steps on your own?

Are you able to make a copy on your computer?

Copy function of a printer is independent of the software on the computer.

If you are unable to make a copy, please do hard reset (disconnect the power cable of the printer, wait for a minute and connect the power cord directly to a wall outlet and turn the printer ON.)

If the printer still does not make a copy after a hard reset. Please contact our phone support for the service or upgrade options for the printer. 

Recommend you to uninstall the printer, reset the printing system and install the printer by downloading HP Easy Start from this link.

HP Printers - Uninstalling HP Printer Software (Mac) (Please have the printer Off during the uninstall process.

Restart the MAC and download HP Easy Start from this link and run HP Easy Start to complete the installation.

I have a school computer that does not let me do many things on it.

Thanks for the reply, you would need to contact your school computer administrator and check if you can get administrator privileges on your computer to make the necessary changes. 

Keep me posted.
