With a new MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2019 – OS 11.2), I’d expected problems with plugs and sockets. A bit of a nuisance - but there you go.
More serious is that my perfectly good HP Printer Scanner HP 3030 J610 is not compatible with Big Sur. To make matters worse, I’ve got three new 301 cartridges in a drawer. HP tell me that none of their printers is compatible with BS! They say they have received phone calls and the matter is under review … (?) I don’t do much printing and can limp along for now by air-dropping to the old Mac. But does anyone know whether it’s just HP that has no drivers for BS? Can we expect HP to fix this problem any time soon? Don't suppose there's any kind of all-in-one driver that handles all printers, a bit like Adobe for PDFs ... (?)
With regard to plugs and sockets, my Lenovo external monitor, which has a VGA cable, is connected to the previous Mac via a Thunderbolt adaptor. Is there a daisy chain fix that will enable me to use it with my new MBP
I have just bought a USB-ZMUIPNG multifunctional HUB (ZM1816) that clips into the side of the new MBP – does this help with the monitor?
Thanks in advance …
