    Hello.

    There is a missing scan(ner) option in a new 2020 (Intel i7) 13" MBP's clean installed updated macOS Big Sur
    v11.1. This is with an old HP OfficeJet 8600 Pro (printer+fax) via wireless AirPrint. I added the printer in
    macOS' printers & scanners. The old 13" MBP's mac OS Mojave v10.14.6 has no problems! Did the new macOS version
    change something? If not, then what's wrong? Do I need to install HP's bloated softwares to get it? :(

    Thank you for reading and hopefully answering soon. :)

    Lines of text containing tells. HWSNBN's behavior is totally perfectly
    unfair. There's no dispute that as soon as any released 'filtered person'
    does something to frighten the wimp's feelings that they'll be blocked
    again. How is wasting synaptic connections tied to the intelligence of
    a turnip in any way going to lead to valuable newsgroup writing? HWSNBN
    asked to be rated according to provable trolling measurements, which
    Kelly Phillips accommodated. Kelly Phillips's computer has more hard
    drives than HWSNBN's. Kelly Phillips wins. HWSNBN loses. Any questions?

    You will almost certainly have to find HP drivers (and you probably did
    on the previous machine and have forgotten). Good luck with that, as HP abandons printers in minutes and if they do updated drivers they take a
    very long time to do so.

    Commander Kinsey-like advocates are still yapping about the AppleScript "desktop" as if that actually could happen. It's the same thing that happens in every group Commander Kinsey infects.

    Commander Kinsey calls it "trolling" him, even though he proceeds to trigger that precise criteria. Another successful USB 3 Linux driver test. That
    is if you count slow and buggy as a success.

    Thanks. I downloaded, and installed HP Easy Start app. It detected the
    old HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 wirelessly and took over as the drivers. Wifi
    could print and scan fine. If I tried to print with its USB cable, then
    it doesn't work. MacOS kept saying waiting for the printer forever. I
    could access USB printer's details and status, and even scan. With HP
    Utility, I told it to print and it was fine. Why can't I print of
    TextEdit, Firefox, etc.? I'm using a brand new Apple USB-C to USB
    adapter dongle too. I already tried rebooting both the printer and brand
    new MBP.

    I tried the old 2012 13" MacBook Pro with its mac OS Mojave v10.14.6,
    and it had no problems. What's going on? Is Big Sur that buggy? So frustrating. :(

    Linux offers the least of everything to the average user. I'm about to KF
    him, myself. Like all losers, he is constantly looking for some way to abuse, no matter how goofy the charge. I will not listen to his response to this post. He is angry, wants to blame others, and will berate. Most likely opening with a dismissive "<crickets>", as if what I've written is _so_ off base.
    That BADish "approach" was the final indignity, for me.

    By being taught by 'teachers' like that you get concepts like 'religious freedom'. Carried to its (im)moral conclusion, the insistence that it's 'bigoted'
    for a traditional dude to not wish to screw a dead body is created. What
    were you hoping for?

    Usenet is a free non-organization based on shared ethics.

    The full sham is full of laughable gaps and relies heavily on Shadow's 'vitamin D' horseplay. Can emoji be concatenated into a string with a
    logical connection to the "real" world; that is the question posed recently
    by those astonished at the endless babbling of "advocates" and basement- dwelling ultra-cranks.

    Rambling cretin.

    He is as incompetent as Shadow. Shadow can't get anything else to work, either. If Shadow calls getting his ass *kicked hard* like an idiot every single day by Commander Kinsey (and completely trashing his reputation
    and any reason for anyone to give credence to anything he has to say -
    until hell freezes over) successful 'trolling', then whatever... he is
    a splendid troll. I can't personally accept that meaning, I use another
    term. I call him a perfect numbskull.

    F. Russell created at least one major circus in the last year or so.
    Let us all have a moment of silence as we honor his accomplishments!

    The majority of regulars in this group do programming either as a leisure activity or as a profession, so I doubt anybody here consider automation
    to be "black magic".

    F. Russell reported him years ago. As expected, it did nothing to thwart
    the k00k.

    More deception by Diesel. F. Russell didn't deny authoring it, but he
    did not post it to Dailymotion. Diesel did that, in an account that uses
    his work.... and he did it because he's obsessed with Diesel kicking
    his ass 'till the cows come home.

    The herd members value the LCD above choice and productivity.

    Curious how these posts are made? Email: fretw...@gmail.com


    Requesting Despicable Owl to stop trolling is distinct from quoting his dishonesty. My main idea was that advocates arrive here *to* battle deniers. It is not like honest people do not quickly figure out what this group
    is, Shadow included.

    Like most in here, Despicable Owl relies on biased media to contrive
    his positions on current events. So, he only believes and accepts the
    official news which also are the ones which characterize communists in
    a dishonestly hopeful and respectable slant.

    Despicable Owl is trying again to slander AVG.

    Now let us see knows Python, is an avid scripter, has stolen Shadow's
    account, has an obsession and is a huge conniption-fit throwing redneck
    who, when he backs himself into a corner, posts demands he be "trusted"
    even when he's _not_ flooding... AND... who endeavors to attributes everything HE is doing on "others" and has for his whole life? Just look at what Despicable Owl has posted and look at Shadow's, there is nothing for Shadow
    to learn from a fool like Despicable Owl. But so be it, let him keep making
    a moron of himself. He can make another sock to pat himself on the back.

    Until or unless Despicable Owl offers up his 'top-of-the-line' Windows
    system for testing, there is no challenge, just boisterous contentions.

    This forum is a leaking porta potty.

    You could probably set up the old iMac to run as a printer server via
    Printer Sharing. It could alos be used for other server options like a
    file server or email server.

    Other options are:

    - for printing, it could be Gutenprint, but the "latest" news
    (October 2019) mentions problems with Catalina, so it may not
    work with Big Sur, let alone M1 Macs.
    <http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/index.php>

    - for scanning, there is VueScan which does work with Big Sur,
    but no mention of M1 Macs.
    <https://www.hamrick.com>

    but although they do work with a wide variety of old printers and
    scanners, they might not work with your particular model.

    even think to search the Apple support site for an updated driver.

    Apple defers to the manufacturer.

    For many years now, I've seen the scanner and printer market follow an outsource model that frequently orphans perfectly functional hardware well before it's time.

    A vendor (Epson, HP!, Canon, etc) will make a printer or scanner. Frequently, they won't create the drivers for it but outsource that to a software house
    who is given the spec for the hardware and they write driver and associated software to support the printer or scanner. Then they're done. Unless the vendor has a software team of their own, there probably won't be anything but bug-fix maintenance on an ad-hoc basis on the driver. The software (like HP Image Garden(?) et al) is rarely updated. Ideally, a new printer of the same family with better hardware (e.g. cheaper to make, faster print engine,
    updated firmware, etc) might work with the old software and maybe even the old driver with some tweaks.

    Then comes the OS changes that yank the rug out from a printer or scanner. The driver, previously 32-bit, now must be 64-bit. The underlaying connection protocol like AppleTalk over Ethernet is removed from the OS. Maybe, just maybe, the vendor can recover from this. If it's HP, forgetaboutit. To them, printers and scanners are loss leaders purely sold as a mechanism for selling printer ink.

    Whatever broke between MacOS 10.15 and MacOS 11, I'd venture to guess will
    stay broken with HP hardware. There's no money in supporting old hardware in their business model. Buy a replacement device.

    In contrast, Brother seems to update their drivers and their hardware regularly. I only buy network-attached printers that use a network protocol to print. Every printer I've used has just worked.

    I've gone through three Canon scanners (eventually the parts become more expensive than a new device or the belts inside die). They all worked just
    fine with VueScan which is all I needed.

    If you want, you could buy a voodoo doll and some pins at the Voodoo Supply Store but getting hair for that MBA that's making these decisions will be tricky. At best, you'll be sticking pins in a doll and cursing with no result and it won't solve your problem.

    Buy another scanner/printer but not from HP.

    Ah. What about https://support.apple.com/kb/DL1888?

    Hey thanks! That totally worked, I have all my printer features back!
    Strange that HP does not make that driver available,

    No it's not. HP is a shit company that does not want to support their products in the belief that people will be stupid enough o keep
    replacing them with other HP products.

    and that Big Sur could not locate it from Apple on its own. I didn't
    even think to search the Apple support site for an updated driver.

    Apple defers to the manufacturer.
    For many years now, I've seen the scanner and printer market follow an outsource model that frequently orphans perfectly functional hardware well before it's time.

    A vendor (Epson, HP!, Canon, etc) will make a printer or scanner. Frequently,
    they won't create the drivers for it but outsource that to a software house who is given the spec for the hardware and they write driver and associated software to support the printer or scanner. Then they're done. Unless the vendor has a software team of their own, there probably won't be anything but
    bug-fix maintenance on an ad-hoc basis on the driver. The software (like HP Image Garden(?) et al) is rarely updated. Ideally, a new printer of the same family with better hardware (e.g. cheaper to make, faster print engine, updated firmware, etc) might work with the old software and maybe even the old
    driver with some tweaks.

    Then comes the OS changes that yank the rug out from a printer or scanner. The
    driver, previously 32-bit, now must be 64-bit. The underlaying connection protocol like AppleTalk over Ethernet is removed from the OS. Maybe, just maybe, the vendor can recover from this. If it's HP, forgetaboutit. To them, printers and scanners are loss leaders purely sold as a mechanism for selling

    Already moved on from that. Take it as you want! Now Jesus on the other
    end of the line doesn't matter. All that matters is Gregory Hall gets
    to deliver the punchline. So how to handle it? Don't reply to the nonsense. Honest discussion isn't part of the plan and never will be.
    But why the requirement to edit the DOM via an automated phone system
    in a super computer system? As always, he didn't state this as part of
    his, what would undoubtedly be, never ending expansion of 'barometer'.
    Frankly I do not really give a shit.
    A meaningless discourse by pseudo-experts, magnified by the reciprocal
    of a limitless imagination, demonstrating the vast nothingness of Gregory Hall's so-called thought process. AppleScript is only inexpensive if
    your time has no value.
    Gregory Hall is trying to project their trolling crap onto Jesus. For
    over a decade Gregory Hall has pressed the idea that Jesus needs 'documentation'
    to point out all his forgeries. The fact is that no one needs any support
    to do that. So Gregory Hall pulls this insane trolling baloney in a feeble attempt to 'sell' the idea that Jesus is like he is.
