The problem is that the printer driver is unsigned. I cannot install it, unless I go into Terminal and use
The download from HP also contains PPD files, which, as a workaround, I have put at
Is there some way I can treat the PPD file, so that it will work? Or, does this mean that I will not be able to get this older printer to work in Ventura? It is a fine printer.

/Library/Printers/PPDs/Contents/Resources/, but when macOS wants to finalize the installation I get an error alert that says “The software for the printer was installed incorrectly. Please reinstall the software from the manufacturer.”Is there some way I can treat the PPD file, so that it will work?
