Product: M277dw color laser jet
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)
For unknown reasons I can no longer print, wirelessly, using my iMac running the latest OSX. I get error messages saying <filename> will damage your computer. The dialog box this shows up in enables me to find the file in Finder so I started deleting the filenames that kept showing up in the error messages:
fax.backend
hpPostProcessing.bundle
hpPostScriptPDE.plugin
and others
Now I cannot even reinstall the printer and Ive reset all settings on the printer to factory defaults.
I'm stuck. Can anyone "deliver me" from this?
Thanks!!
Harry
