HP requiring their own stupid application that you could only install from the Microsoft store was a giant pain in the ass for my company when everyone was working from home during COVID. That by itself made me swear to never buy anything HP for the rest of my life.
We are still stuck with HP. We extract and install the universal print drivers, then manually create the port and then just join the two together using print management.
It’s fiddly to set up, but it keeps the printer in line.
