Product: HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M281fdw
Operating System: macOS 12.0 Monterey

Since the 20230822 FW update blocks my printer for non-HP chip, I need to downgrade the FW (since it worked perfectly before).  Host is an iMac 2023 running Sonoma OS 14.5.  Connecting with WiFI and/or USB.

 

1. The HP driver library only has the faulty FW, the virtual bot is useless: it sends me into a loop for without a link to the correct files. 

2. The Reddit link on an other question provides Windows FW drivers, but no Mac dmg drivers.... ;-( 

Please assist: the printer is blocked since I upgraded the FW, I should have known better ...

thanks
