I noticed macOS' dmesg showed a lot of "HP Device Monito@: AppleUSBHostUserClient::openGated: 
could not open provider IOUSBHostInterface. provider already opened for exclusive access by HP 
Device Monito". Without HP's softwares and drivers installed and can print via USB, but have 
no scanner and fax options, I don't see these lines. I guess, HP still needs to give out newer 
softwares and drivers, and my client has to use AirPrint and no USB for now. :(
