Frequently asked questions (FAQs)
Review these frequently asked questions for OS X v10.11 El Capitan and OS X v10.10 Yosemite printer support.
What driver types are available for OS X?
To install your printer driver, you can download the full feature driver from the HP website if it's available, or you can install your printer through Apple Software Update (ASU). Depending on your printer, one or more of the following options might be available.
  • HP full feature driver and software
    HP provides full feature drivers for many printers. These drivers provide full product functionality, plus valuable software to help you get the most out of your printer.
  • HP Easy Start
    For some printer models, HP Easy Start is available on the HP driver downloads page. This tool provides a guided driver installation and printer setup.
  • Apple Software Update (ASU) driver
    Apple Software Update is a quick and easy software download method available directly through the operating system.
    You do not need to download a driver from HP Software & Driver Downloads if you install using Apple Software Update. This download method includes the HP print driver. Depending on your printer, the download might also include HP Utility, scanning software, or the HP fax driver. Go to Installing a Mac Printer Driver Using Apple Software Update.
  • Gutenprint
    Gutenprint (formerly called Gimp-Print) provides open-source basic print drivers for many printers that would otherwise not be supported in Mac OS X. To see if your printer is supported, go to Gutenprint drivers for more information.
     note:
    Gutenprint drivers are not supported by HP or Apple.
How do I install full feature drivers from the HP website?
If the full feature driver is available for your printer, go to the HP Customer Support page to download and install the full feature driver.
  1. Turn on the printer.
  2. If your printer is connected to the computer with a USB cable, disconnect the cable from the printer.
  3. If prompted, select a method to identify your printer model, and then follow the on-screen instructions to go to the download page.
  4. Click Download next to the full feature driver (recommended), or click Basic Drivers for other driver options.
How do I install drivers with HP Easy Start?
HP Easy Start is the new way to set up your HP printer and prepare your Mac for printing. If the HP Easy Start full feature installation is available for your printer, it guides you through the printer setup.
  1. Turn on the printer.
  2. If your printer is connected to the computer with a USB cable, disconnect the cable from the printer.
  3. If prompted, select a method to identify your printer model, and then follow the on-screen instructions to go to the download page.
  4. Click Download next to HP East Start.
  5. Use the HP Download and Install Assistant for the guided driver download and installation, or select Download only to manually open or run the driver file through your Internet browser’s download tools.
How do I install drivers with Apple Software Update?
Install the best available Mac print driver and software using Apple Software Update.
Go to Installing a Mac Printer Driver Using Apple Software Update. This download method includes the HP print driver. Depending on your printer, the download might also include HP Utility, scanning software, or the HP fax driver.
What happens to my print driver when I upgrade to El Capitan or Yosemite?
If you had the full feature printer software installed on your Mac running Mavericks, then everything should work the same as it did before you upgraded to El Capitan and Yosemite.
If you upgraded to El Capitan and Yosemite from an operating system that released prior to Mavericks and there is not a full feature driver available for El Capitan and Yosemite, how you print remains the same, but you might have to scan in a different way. For more information on scanning without a full feature driver, go to How to Scan Without HP Software in OS X v10.11 El Capitan and OS X v10.10 Yosemite.
What if my printer is not working as expected after upgrading to El Capitan or Yosemite?
If your printer is experiencing printing, connection, or scanning issues or an error message displays after upgrading to El Capitan or Yosemite, go to the HP Support page, enter your printer model, and then search for the document on printing, connection, or scanning issues, or for the error message that displays.
Gutenprint (formerly called Gimp-Print) provides open-source basic print drivers for many printers that would otherwise not be supported in Mac OS X. To see if your printer is supported, go to Gutenprint drivers for more information.
 note:
Gutenprint drivers are not supported by HP or Apple.
What if my printer is not listed or the driver I want is unavailable?
If your HP printer is no longer supported in this Mac OS X version, you might want to consider purchasing a new printer. Go to the HP Store to upgrade to an HP printer that provides all the great features you are looking for in a Yosemite and El Capitan compatible printer.
We are sorry to inform you that Mac OS X support is not available for the following HP printers. HP drivers for these printers are not available from the HP website or Apple Software Update.
