    Start by installing `hplip`: `sudo apt install hplip`. This will install a program created by the HP developers to find, configure and use all HP printers. After the installation, run `hp-setup` to get started. – Jos Apr 24 '19 at 09:04
  • You will need to find which version of HPLIP supports your printer. See this page as a first step: https://developers.hp.com/hp-linux-imaging-and-printing/supported_devices/index then download the correct version (unless your version of HPLIP already support it).

HP have done a respectable job by providing their own Linux printer driver package called hplip. It's not entirely foolproof but it generally does the job.

Start by downloading the latest software from this page. Choose Debian from the distribution drop-down list. After the download, open a terminal, cd into your Downloads folder and make the downloaded file executable:

chmod +x hplip-3.21.8.run

(modify the filename as appropriate). Then run it:

sudo ./hplip-3.21.8.run

After installation, run the command hp-setup so the printing software can find your printer and install the right printer driver for it.
