Product: Samsung Xpress SL-M2835DW Laser Printer
Operating System: Other

Now that I've installed macOS 11 Big Sur I can no longer print anything. There is no driver available on the hp website. How can I find out whether they have plans to release a driver, and if so, when it might become available? I'm working at home these days and now I don't have a functioning printer.

JSB - I had the same problem with a M2830DW.  The generic PCL driver in Big Sur will work with that printer (and I assume yours).  Go to System Preferences/Printers and Scanners and delete the printer, then Add new printer.  It should automatically select Generic PCL Printer (assuming you have no other conflicting drivers).  That should suffice until HP comes out with a specific driver.  Also my Samsung Easy Print application is now working again after being disabled by the OS update.  Hope this helps you in the meantime.
