Unable to Install HP LaserJet Pro P1108 Printer Driver. Please Help..

I am currently using Mac OS BigSur Beta 11.0 Version 20A5395g.. In this version I was using HP LaserJet Pro P1108 Printer for a few weeks without any issue. Today when I tried to print a document then a message was shown that HPRaster.bundle will damage your computer and I was unable to print the document. I tried HP Easy Start as well as downloaded the driver software frrom HP Official Website but when I am trying to install the software named HPPrinterDrivers5.1.dmg then a pop up is being shown that "This volume does not meet the requirements for this update."

That's why I am unable to install the printer driver and use the same. Please help how I can install the printer software and use it again. There is no issues with my Printer because I have checked that from my other devices like iMac & my another windows PC. So I think the problem lies in my MacBook Pro.. It's unable to install the printer software somehow..

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.0

Yes. No doubt it's a big problem that needs immediate action either by Apple or on behalf of HP to resolve this matter.. Actually I have one iMac 2017 model which runs on mac OS Catalina 10.5.7 but I have faced no problem to uninstall the HP Printer Driver & reinstalling the same. The HP Laserjet Pro Printer is working fine. But in my MacBook Pro running on Big Sur Beta 11.0 the same driver is not being installed and the printer can't be used . Don't know why.. Perhaps the problem lies in the latest version of Big Sur.

I am in the same boat with the issue of not being able to reinstall the drivers. One suggestion I got that worked in one of my computers was to restore the "hp" folder in /Library/Printers/ from a Time machine backup prior to October 23. That worked in one of my computers but not in the other one. I am guessing we will need to wait until HP updates the driver package so that it can be installed in Big Sur. Now that Big Sur is officially out, I suggest we all contact HP with the issue so that they update the drivers.

Exactly. Me too facing the same issue. Don't know when and how I will get rid of this. I have also submitted my feedback to Apple describing the problem. Hope they will respond and find me the solution. I suggest you guys to contact with Apple regarding this matter. Otherwise it won't be resolved.

Hi,

The problem is that you downloaded the incompatible Big Sur installation file. After an extensive search, I have found a link to download the installation package directly from HP (released on 11/20/2020)

Paste the link to Safari (it then will ask you to open FTP in Finder)

ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib/software12/HP_Quick_Start/osx/Installations/Essentials/ASU/

Then download "HewlettPackardPrinterDrivers.pkg"

I was able to install the driver in Big Sur and successfully added my old Deskjet F4200 series printer/scanner.

I had a similar support thread running with a similar question and one of the users commented with this information so thank them, not me.

I'm not that tech savvy so I was afraid it wouldn't work as easy as it did for everyone else lol. But yep, worked perfectly.
