HP OfficeJet Pro 8028e is not allowing me to connect via USB and print a simple Pages document.
Apparently I am supposed to start using something called AirSomething.
I want to plug in my USB printer and print my documents. This is normal computer functionality. If Apple cannot provide normal functionality, why did I just pay over $2500 for a new laptop?

I prefer AirPrint over USB printing for the simple reason that I don't have to take my computer to the printer and plug in. If I want to I can print from the couch, studio or bedroom. Plus, no drivers required to be downloaded, installed and updated.
USB printing is old skool.

What do I do when a HP printer does not work with MacBook Pro running macOS Sonoma?
