hp software reported as malware. Suddenly can't print. HP 2055 DN on network Catalina 10.15.7 MBP i7 with touch bar etc. Suddenly, parts of the hp driver software (seems to be files ending in .bundle) are being reported as .... will damage your computer and the print job won't print. The printer web page will print status lists etc and so I know my machine is talking to the printer. I can reinstall the printer and so I know that bonjour sees and identifies the printer. My wife's MB air has the same issue so I know that it aint just my MBP. Cups sees the printer (on localhost:631) and I can change paper size etc but the test page won't print from the cups admin i/f. I have reset the router (?) I have reinstalled the drivers including a new download from Apple.

photosmart printer stopped working After the last upgrade to Catalina a couple of weeks ago, whenever I try to print, it flags several of the driver flags as malware and does not print. Really? If it isn't Apple it isn't allowed? Printer: HP PhotoSmart 7660 connected to an AirPort Express. Laptop: MacBook Pro (15 inch, 2019), Catalina 10.15.7 Driver files called out: “PDE.plugin” will damage your computer. “commandtohp.filter” will damage your computer. “Inkjet6.driver” will damage your computer. There is no option to tell it to proceed. How do I use my printer?
