6/11/2023 0 Comments Drivers for a hp laserjet 4050n![]() It is such a shame that beautiful old things which still look and work like new are discarded because things move on. But if I can still use the printer from my old machine through direct printing that would be a bonus. I need help to move the equipment about so cannot do it at the moment. I am now looking at taking the printer off my network and attaching it directly to my old PowerMac, which still has the original printer driver software on it. ![]() I also looked at the gimp-print website and no joy there either. I have already tried the Gutenprint website but it does not give any links for Mac OS 11. You could try the Gutenprint drivers from here, Ĭompanies like HP and Apple survive on selling products it is not in their interest to keep supporting This is probably why if you have recently installed macOS Big Sur you are facing this problem. When Apple introduced macOS Catalina 10.15 two years ago they removed the ability of the mac to run 32bit appsĪnd 32bit drivers etc, this continues in macOS Big Sur 11.0 and now macOS Monterey 12.0. If your printer was still working on a newer macOS then you have been lucky. Was last supported by HP on Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard which was released over 10 years ago. If you go to the HP support website for this printer you are met with "We were unable to find drivers for your product."Ĭlick on Choose a different OS, select macOS then Select Version and you will see that this printer Have you recently upgraded your macs OS to macOS 11.3.1 Big Sur or bought a new mac with Big Sur on it.
