Using sigverif.exe is one way to try to identify a problematic driver.
The process can be used when an unidentified driver is suspected
of causing the operating system to crash generating a blue screen
of death Stop Error message. Signed drivers are less likely to cause
such errors so you concentrate efforts on finding updated
replacements for those which are unsigned. Unchecked files are not
checked because they are not installed and so can be ignored.
You have five unsigned drivers. Just because they are unsigned does
not mean that they are not to be used. It usually means that they predate
the File Signature system operated by Microsoft. However, if you are
encountering problems then they are a good place to start if you have
no better clues.
You should try to get out of thinking that "deleting" is a way of solving a
problem. It may be but more often it is not. With drivers you replace an
existing driver with an updated version, probably devised to overcome
the problem you are encountering. Occasionally you may need to revert
to an earlier version of the driver.
Unless you have a problem with your HP peripherals or are seeing
errors where drivers are a suspected cause leave things as they are.
Most users have some unsigned drivers. There are 10 on my machine.

OK, if it will not harm my system. I have five such unsigned drivers in
sigverif.exe - hpgdtppg.dll, hpgdt.dll, hpgdtuu.dll, hpsjuset.dll and
mdiui.dll . However just to be clear, by <disregard>, do you mean delete
them?
