Ihave just looked at the logs you have uploaded and it looks the dlpdaemon daemon is crashing repeatedly. I believe this daemon is associated with Microsoft Defender. Could you please remove it and reboot the machine before trying to add a printer again?

We have the same issue as well here, academic staff start complaining theirs printer disappearing after recently installed macOS Sonoma update 14.4.0 . Everything was working fine up until few days ago before installing the update. The last version installed was 14.3.1. So far we have approximately 40 devices affected. We then try to replicate the issue and this is what we found below,


We have 60 Macbooks which we manage via Jamf Pro. Since MacOS 14.4, all printing functionality on the Macs is broken. There are no printing drivers on the Mac and any printer related activity comes up with the error message "cupsctl: Unable to connect to server: Bad file descriptor".


Welp, I've been banging my head on this wall also. I'm not running Defender, etc., nothing's showing up broken, and running 14.4.1. I just decided to jump into this thread for additional insights as well as hop over to HP to check in for new drivers. For my MFP M234dw, a firmware update was released exactly two days ago. I ran it, it did its thing, and now I can install my printer and print with impunity.


I see that you already tried resetting the Mac's print system, but have you tried simply removing, and then, re-adding this printer while logged onto your Mac with an Administrator account? Doing so will reset the device drivers and printer queue. Have you tried resetting the printer to its factory default configuration?


FWIW ... Although Apple does provide printer drivers for the most popular printer models, they get them from the manufacturers. New installations of macOS only include Apple and generic print drivers; whereas; upgrade installations also install drivers for printers already in use by the Mac. We are still dependent on the printer manufacturers for print drivers that "full featured" for theis specific printers.


I am sorry you are having printer problems. If you will bear with me, I will offer some things to consider. Whenever we install an operating system upgrade or some OS updates, printers and scanners will often stop working. Then, a new OS compliant printer software must be installed. What you can do is to thoroughly check the printer web site for an updated driver that works with the newly installed operating system. If one is not available, then you should ask when one will be released. If that doesn't work, if the Printer has the Air Print feature, that can be used and no driver will be needed. If not, then you can check the respected web site below where volunteers write free drivers for older printers which are no longer supported, but which work with newer operating systems. It is worth checking out. Good luck.


What you have encountered is not unusual. Apple does not develop its operating systems to conform to every printer's requirements. What Apple does is to provide OS requirements to all the various vendors who have equipment they wish to connect to and work with Macs, etc. Then the vendors must provide updated printer drivers (in this case) to meet those published requirements. This is how it has always been.


This is interesting... looking at the posts, it seems to rather happen to managed PCs (mine too). I set up a fresh install in a virtual machine via UTM, and it worked fine. Thanks for your post, I was close to factory resetting my Mac


I'm using windows 8 and other user windows 7 and shared the printer thru network. I have called the technical support and been advised to uninstall the existing driver, but the problem still not solve yet. the printer message "driver is invalid". Please help me asap if possible.


I would disable all the start up programs and temporarily turn off the Antivirus Software to see if there is a program interfering in the back ground. How to use MSCONFIG . Click on the start up tab and click disable all.


The universal Twain driver is designed as an Enterprise level solution. We have had success with Laserjet devices that are at least 400 level products like the 428 or 479 and Pagewide Pro products like the P57750. Smaller officejet products were never designed for Enterprise rollout and therefore they typically take advantage of the Scan software that comes packaged with it or HP Smart.

If you're using Windows and you've installed a HP driver, VueScan's built-in drivers won't conflict with this. If you haven't installed a Windows driver for this scanner, VueScan will automatically install a driver.


The download and installation will automatically start when updates are available. Wait a few minutes until the process completes, then reboot your computer to test. If the error persists, move on to the second solution.


The HP printer driver unavailable error usually indicates your printer is missing, corrupt or not recognized by the computer. You should just uninstall the current driver and install the latest correct printer driver. There are two ways for you to do so: manually or automatically (recommended).


If none of the methods above works, there might be something wrong with your system. Corrupted or damaged system files can trigger various printer issues including the printer driver error. To identify the cause and fix it, you can use Fortect to do a full Windows scan and repair.


If you print often with specialty paper (i.e. envelopes, cardstock, & labels) you may want to turn up the fuser temperature on your printer. Here is an example of a toner smear on an envelope -- we will fix this defect by turning the temperature up.


If you print often with specialty paper (i.e. envelopes, cardstock, & labels) you may want to turn up the fuser temperature on your printer. With thicker paper types, heat does not transfer as easily as it can through standard paper--which means the toner may not bond as well.


Our example machine is an HP LaserJet 4300 printer. The concept of turning up the fuser temperature can apply to many HP LaserJets. Fuser temperature settings are generally stored under the "Print Quality" menu.


Step 4: Select "Plain" as the paper type--select"Plain" even if you're printing letterhead, envelopes, labels, etc. By default most software applications & printer drivers treat all paper types as "Plain" paper.


Clearing the printer queue can help remove any unwanted printing tasks that may create issues with the printer data. Once done, try printing another page and verify if the printer is still printing symbols.


Whenever you find an HP printer printing gibberish in Windows 11, your primary approach should be to cancel printing then proceed to update the printer drivers. Also, check for connections and make sure the cable is not damaged.


Besides, a user reported that using a surge protector caused the issue, and directly plugging the printer into the power source fixed things. And if nothing else works, resetting the printer would be your last hope.
