Printing on HP printers from MacBook Pro using Big Sur

HP does not offer drivers for HP ENVY 110 all in one D441 printers for Big Sur. Automatic download put BIG Sur on my machine. Now I cannot print to my HP ENVY 110 ALL IN ONE PRINTER.

Does Big Sur OS offer drivers for HP printers? If so, for what models. I use an inkjet printer for personal use - low usage but mandatory.

Please let me know. I want to buy a new printer but need to know if there are drivers for my MacBook Pro with Big SUR OS.

Thank you!

Unlike most printers from HP, yours appears that its Driver was not 64-bit ready, and support was dropped.

You can select the "AirPrint" driver in the "add-A-Printer dialog box. This gives you the ability to do straightforward printing, but no options.

For some smarter printers that have PostScript emulation built-in, you may be able to choose the "Generic PostScript" Driver. this allow you to print, but no options like double-sided or paper-tray selection.

Is there an availability list that lists Canon and HP printers for which Big Sur drivers are available?

Apple does not appear to maintain such lists.

You would need to contact the printer maker.
