If you’re using an HP LaserJet M11, M12, M12W or M13 printer with macOS Monterey or an M1 Mac you need to download and install this older driver from the HP FTP site. Here’s how to make your HP LaserJet or OfficeJet printer work with macOS Ventura, Monterey and M1/M2 Macs. It seems the issue is that HP simply hasn’t updated the drivers to be compatible with Ventura, Monterey 12.0.1 and M1/M2 Macs even though it appears on the website that compatible drivers are available.įortunately, the solution is quite simple. However, when you try to install the driver in macOS 12.0.1 Monterey, it does not work with the error message, “This update requires macOS version 12.0 or earlier”. The problem is when you go to the HP Laserjet website, it appears that the drivers for the latest versions of macOS are available such as macOS 12 Monterey: Many HP LaserJet or OfficeJet Printer users that have either bought a new M1/M2 Mac or updated to the latest version of macOS Ventura, macOS 12.2.1 Monterey and more recently macOS 12.5 have suddenly found it has stopped working or won’t connect to their Mac.Īlthough many printers will work without drivers on a Mac using AirPrint and Bonjour, some HP all-in-one printers will not meaning you must have the drivers in order to use it with a Mac. HP Printers are some of the best printers for Macs but updates to macOS Ventura and Monterey have caused driver problems with Officejets such as the HP OfficeJet 9025 and Laserjets including the HP LaserJet Pro M479fdn, HP1102w, P1007, M751dn, M11, M12, M12W and M13 series. When trying to scan something, you probably will receive an alert (as I did) mention you do not have the permission to open the application "HP Scanner 3".If you’ve had problems getting your HP LaserJet or OfficeJet Printer to work with the latest versions of macOS or on your new M1/M2 Mac, here we show you how to get it working with macOS Ventura, Monterey and Big Sur. Unfortunately your mission does not stop here. This is exactly what you did before but now the "Scan" will appear. Once installed you can safely quit the installation without providing personal information such as your zipcode.Īt this point you can remove your printer from "Printers and scanners" window then re-add your printer using AirPrint. When asked, you need to install only the "Essential" part. continue with the current HP Easy Scan installation. Try to quit the installation window then you will be asked to: You seem to do not have alternative but you actually do.
This program installs the scanner driver your Mac does not have.Īt some point, you will be asked if you want to install HP Smart because it is more recent.
I did not want to create an account to simply scan a document. As suggested I installed HP Smart and I was asked to create an account. I had exactly the same issue with my HP Deskjet 3070A.
