Turn off the printer and unplug it for ~5 minutes. Uninstall the Printer using the HP Uninstall, go into Finder and search for anything/everything HP and delete those files - everything HP related. Empty the Trash. Restart the computer. Again go into Finder and search for anything/everything HP and delete those files - everything HP related. Empty the Trash. Again restart the computer. Plug the printer back in and turn it on. Open System Preferences, Printers & Scanners, add a printer using the Generic PCL Laser Printer and it worked for my OfficeJet 8600 Pro.

Sorry last part to the fix is to then go to https://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/closure/hp-officejet-pro-8600-e-all-in-one-printer-series-n911/4322914/model/4323658?ssfFlag=true&sku= to get the latest drivers. Make sure you select the proper iOS - the site defaults to OS 10.15. Download and install the new drivers and follow the prompts. When asked if you want to use the Generic or HP drivers select HP. To scan now I use the Image Capture application.
I was able to resolve the problem with an Apple support person who walked me though the process. Thanks.
Please do the following in this order:
