Try the below suggestions -

Uninstall HP printer software

2. In the menu bar, click Go, click Applications, and then open the HP or Hewlett Packard folder.

a) If HP Uninstaller is in the folder, double click it, and then follow the on-screen instructions to uninstall the software.

3. Click and drag the HP or Hewlett Packard folder to the Trash icon in the Dock.

The Printers folder opens.
