How do I delete an HP Printer from my MacBook Air?

I am getting the error message " "HPDM.framework" will damage your computer" when trying to use my HP OfficeJet Pro 8610.

I believe my certificate for my HP printer has possibly expired. How do I uninstall the HP printer, then reinstall?

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 10.12

Mac OS 10.13.6 cannot print to dell e525w printer I have an old MacBook Pro (early 2011) running 10.13.6 and having a problem using a Dell e525w printer wirelessly. I can connect to the printer wirelessly, 'find printer' depress the button makes the printer beep, 'supply levels' button, shows the status and levels the ink jet cartridges. The problem is when printing the Dell printer dialog box shows the document name requested to be printed but...above the document name is an error message: "Encryption Crederntials Have Expired". I have had this printer about 3 years and its a good and efficient printer. How do I get past the expired printer credential problem. Is there a process or procedure to delete and replace the expired printer credential file? Thanks for your assistance resolving this problem.

October 2020 download stopped my printer permanently and left this on my desktop“HPDeviceMonitoring.framework" will damage your computer. I'm on macOS Catalina, Version 10.15.7 and this download causes a message to appear as follows: MAC - Notice received from them after download: “HPDeviceMonitoring.framework" will damage your computer. This file was downloaded on an unknown date. Report malware to Apple to protect other users Show in Finder OK The reason this has happened is because HP inadvertently (their word) issued cancellation certificates on older HP printers, which is what I have. So in the OS download the HP printers that have been issued these certificates cause this message above to attach itself to your screen from Apple - and there is no way to get rid of it - it just keeps refreshing if you try to close it and parks on your desktop permanently. I've spent hours trying to figure this out. There are some fancy suggestions on YouTube about getting rid of this via going into the library and other places I'd rather not go, quite frankly. I see it as the responsibility of Apple Mac to correct this via another download in the very near future. But does anyone know if this will happen? In addition to this I cannot print now. I wrote to HP but of course my printer is 10 yrs. old and I don't expect them to come up with a solution. They give good service and if I've ever had a glitch with the printer I've always been able to easily solve it myself using their instructions open to all HP users. This is really quite cruel from the point-of-view that I am fixed income and rely on my computer and printer daily. I certainly don't have the funds to purchase another printer, particularly when I know there's nothing at all wrong with this one - except that Apple has stopped it operating. Is this how we're supposed to be helping each other in this pandemic? I just don't get it, but if anyone has an idea how I could fix this myself I would be so grateful, as long as it's not too complicated, please...

HP printer drivers no longer working on OS 10.15.7 Suddenly, I receive a message that my HP printer/scanner/inkjet and laser jet printers' drivers are malware, and no longer work on any of my iMac computers or other Apple devices. I read that a glitch in the Apple security system recognized HP as malware. In response, HP has asked Apple to pull their certificates. Our only workaround is using generic drivers and losing multi-functions on these office machines. A total non-starter. Is Apple working to fix the issue? Is HP trying to fix their Apple certificate issue? What is the bottom line of this story? Does our HP office equipment now become door-stops?
