Hi,


There is an HP 5.1.1 Printer Software Update download from Apple. It should be noted that the System Requirements for this update say Not compatible with macOS v12 and newer, but successful use with macOS 12 Monterey has been mentioned in a few reports (about other HP models) anyway. So, something like the HP LaserJet P3005 driver version 19.13 could perhaps be worth a try (Printer and scanner drivers for Mac - Apple Support). However, this may not work/install at all. Look upon it as an experiment. Make sure that you have backup copies of all important files (documents, photos, et cetera) before testing anything.

You don't state what your question is but I assume that you want to know how to get an updated driver for this printer. Since HP appears to not offer one, I would begin by asking them if and when a driver might be released. If there is to be none, you can visit the link below where reliable volunteers write drivers for older non-supported printers. You may fine one there which works. Good luck.
