You will need to contact HP support to see if they have updated drivers for macOS Big Sur available for this printer.

According to this Apple document, About AirPrint - Apple Support, your printer is capable of Air Print and doesn't need any drivers.

Thanks, Old Toad. I learned something new today as I wasn't aware that AirPrint also works for Macs. I thought it only supported iOS / iPadOS devices.
