Thanks, this did not work on my computer. I have tried several different procedures and the pop ups keep coming.
Then you’ll need to hire someone who knows how to do this or take your machine to an authorized repair center.
You need to (1) update your system with the fix then (2) delete and redefine the printer.

Thanks, but I do know how to do it. According to HP community group I now need to reload OS.
You might not need any drivers. What model HP devices are you using? The exact model designation please.
Thanks rccharles. That is what I found on HP.com community forum. It worked.
Glad to hear the good news. Computers are so fun. 😱
