Hi,


Have you tried the universal driver package?

Perhaps choosing something like the M2020 or M2070 model. This may or may not work with macOS 13 Ventura (V3.93.06 seems to be for macOS 12 on HP's support site).


You may have to reset the printing system between tests.

As always, make sure that you have backup copies of all important files before testing anything.
