I just installed Big Sur on my Mac.

Now PDF’s do not print unless “Print As Image” is checked.

Is there a fix?

Hello, 

 

With BigSur 11.0.1 update, drivers of a few printers have become incompatible (partially/entirely). We recommend users to download and install the latest printer driver from the printer manufacturer websites. Printer companies such as Epson, Canon, HP, Brother, etc., have provided new Big Sur compatible drivers for their printers on their websites.

Hi,

 

I'm running Mac Os  Big Sur 11.3.1. Since the installation of this new OS I'm not able to print any pdf file at all.

I have tried reinstalling the printer several times and printing works fine as long as it is not a pdf file. HP states that they will need t to develop new drivers but they don't know when.

Any suggestions or workaround?

How is this related to Adobe Acrobat? Sounds like a general problem with the printer.
