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. :)

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.

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

new MBP.

I noticed macOS' dmesg showed a lot of "HP Device Monito@: AppleUSBHostUserClient::openGated:
could not open provider IOUSBHostInterface. provider already opened for exclusive access by HP
Device Monito". Without HP's softwares and drivers installed and can print via USB, but have
no scanner and fax options, I don't see these lines. I guess, HP still needs to give out newer
softwares and drivers, and my client has to use AirPrint and no USB for now. :(

Yep, I just got a new Mac Mini and my HP 7760 is nearly toast. The
only choices are 300dpi or 600dpi, black and white only. Forget
about colour or any of the photo printing features.
OTOH, hats off to Epson for having an updated driver for my 19-year old
1260 scanner that I first used with OS 9. It works better than fine, as
the new driver does things with this old beast that the old drivers
never did.
Which macOS? Catalina? Big Sur? Do both http://123.hp.com and http://support.hp.com give you any drivers and softwares for it? They
offer me HP Smart app (crap) and Easy Start (better, but still no USB print).

Big Sur, M1 Mac Mini. For this model of USB printer, HP offers a PowerPC driver and a Universal (PPC/Intel) driver that worked with my Intel
iMac running 10.13 (end of the line for that model.) But nothing beyond that. It's really a shame, since the printer still works fine. Might

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.
