I have a HP Envy 4500 e all in one printer scanner that has worked very well for scanning direct from Printers and Scanners in my Mac System Settings - without needing to log in to HP Smart.  Using this route gave better functionality than HP Smart, with a variety of scanned image output file formats available, and avoided the hassle of logging in to HP Smart.

With my Mac now using OS Ventura 13.1, the scanner function is no longer available directly from my Mac System Settings, where only the printer function now shows.  I've just tried to download a driver update (Dec 9,2022) but can't open it as Apple can't check it for malicious software ("contact the developer" it says).  

Is a fix available that doesn't rely on me using HP Smart?
