I recently got this error when trying to print:

 

One or more components of the HP printing software are corrupted or missing. The print job cannot be completed. To fix this situation, HP recommends reinstalling the print driver software.

 

It also says "Stopped - 'Filter' failed, 1 page"

 

I did not have any driver installed as this printer shows up when it's plugged into the computer and I can just add it to my list of printers. But after getting this message I did download the driver. It still gives me this error. So I uninstalled the driver, updated computer, reinstalled driver... I still get this error. Not sure what to do... Thanks!

 

Post edit:

 

This is not solved but it seems this is what is causing the issue:

There is a work around for those who have a wireless connection to their printer (see posts) but basically:

Uninstall the HP driver and use the native AirPrint driver to print to your printer.

 

Those of us who have to connect by USB have to wait for this to be fixed, or some below have said you can create a generic driver that allows you to print with limited functions but I haven’t tried this yet.
