NOMBP4 Installation

System Preferences → Printers and Scanners → The "+" sign → "HP OfficeJet Pro 8720 [F232F8]" must already be detected → Select it → Use should be "Secure AirPrint" → Pull the drop-down → Select Software → Cancel → Auto Select → Should auto-select "Secure AirPrint" → Add. T

The printer panel should have both a Print and a Scan tab (I installed HP Smart before, and maybe that is why it detected the scanner now).

Installation on Mac


Installation using the default driver (Generic PLC Printer) did not work well. Could not select photo paper, etc. Must download the HP drivers and use them.
