Sequoia 15.3.2 installed and now HP printer is dead to me

I thought this problem with the Sequoia updates only affected HP printers but now I see other printers are dead in the water as well. There are no drivers for my HP Envy Inspire 7200 series. I've contacted both HP and Apple support. My printer is still under warranty but is useless. Yes it has air print capability and yes my Mac "sees" the printer but the printer does nothing. I tried messaging something I have to print to myself to air print from my IPhone 16, but that also doesn't work. From what I understand HP won't have a fix for 2-3 months which is INSANE. Speaking to apple support, I was told the Apple store SELLS THE HP INSPIRE SERIES....Seriously? I'm gonna bet many people who are buying this printer from Apple are quite unhappy! So now what? Is there a printer anyone knows of that WORKS with Sequoia 15.3.2 plus? (I see not there is 15.4 but I just stopped my computer from doing automatic updates to stop further damage). Help please?

iMac 24″, macOS 15.3

First off, AirPlay offers additional printer compatibility.

When you go to add a printer, hold the Option key. If the printer doesn't show up and is on the same WiFi network as the Mac, connect the printer via USB cable.


Secondly, https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/ish_2635044-2489772-16 has directions straight from HP to find the latest drivers for their printers if neither works.


Linuxprinting, Gimp/Guten-print may also have additional printer drivers, which typically are picked up by Airplay but not always.

Thank you. I just got off the phone with HP Tech Support. Since I am at work they couldn't tell me what to do but they insist it can work. They said something about uninstalling the printer drivers and re-installing. I don't see how this will help but will follow up and repost after this. I appreciate the instruction to hold the Option Key, etc. My printer is on the same wifi network. If that doesn't work I have trouble because my printer is in another room and cannot be near my desktop due to space considerations. I will now look into the link you provided. Thanks again.
