Can it be that you have earlier installed HPLIP directly from the
upstream source? The system update could have overwritten parts of that
installation and now your HPLIP does not work any more.

A safer way to have an always up-to-date HPLIP is using its Snap
version.

Go to

https://snapcraft.io/hplip-printer-app

Install the Snap, set up your printer in its web interface, and CUPS
will see a network printer, as the Snap emulates a network printer.
Print to this network printer.

In this Snap HPLIP is completely encapsulated and cannot be overwritten
by any other installation. It gets also auto-updated by the Snap Store,
so you will have an always up-to-date HPLIP.
