I solved this and the inability to print by following these steps exactly:
Go to 123.hp.com
Do NOT put in your printer type, instead use the "My device is not listed" link. This takes you to a more generalized tool to download.
Click the Download button. The application "HP Easy Start" version 2.9.3 will download.
Open this app... do NOT go beyond the first screen. Instead, look under the HP Easy Start menu next to the Apple menu, and select and choose "Uninstall HP Software..."
This launches the Uninstaller. Click Continue. Then it takes quite a while to remove all HP files.
When it's done, there is a button to relaunch HP Easy Start, called "Set Up New Device". Click that.
This time "Agree" and hit the Continue button. Make sure of the listed things on the next screen and click Continue.
Select your printer (mine is a printer on the network, it just shows up by its name, e.g. "Anubis") and click Continue.
Click "Install" in the next panel. The 'essential' software is downloaded, and permission must be given to proceed with installing.
Installation seems to take a long time. When it is done click Continue.
At this point you can set up Status and Alerts. I don't know what happens if you do, I just skipped that step by clicking Continue.
In the next panel, click "Add Device..." button. That doesn't take long. Then click "Print Test Page".
If you are lucky like me that page prints. Click Continue. Next is to set up online access things. I didn't really want that, so when I clicked the "Continue Online..." button I did NOT click the "Register My Printer" button in the web page that opened. You might want to.
I confirmed that printing from an app actually works, and then restarting the computer did NOT result in the "damage" warning.
YAY.
Worked on a Catalina iMac and a Mohave MacBook Air.
I have tried this unsuccessfully, all three Library folders “can’t be found”
any other ideas please?
Many thanks for taking the time to post this, it fix the problem for me.

Steve.
Very good, thanks
I started on this but "uninstall HP Software" was not highlighted in the menu so couldn't get started.

Chris,
I meant HP Easy Start.
ALSO;
Apparently - here's the future of all HP Software
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
It's not working for me!!. HELP
Is this also working for the HP Deskjet 3050 J610?
I don’t know how to which lists in Library/LaunchAgents were added when.
I just started getting this popup as well (Oct 24), and also have an HP Envy 7640 - certainly a suspect coincidence.
I did all of that, deleted all HP printers, Scanners and Faxes and tried TC’s recommendation from HPs site. Nothing.
Thank you, that worked!
Chris
How can you tell which are the suspicious files?
Hi-Fen,
Some but not all have been successful with the method described earlier by me in This Post.
If it works for you PLEASE flag it as Helpful so that others can find it more easily.
