Hi Srinivas,
Above attached log in #13 contains following information (see at end):-
----------------------------------------------
[34;01mhp-diagnose_plugin[3027]: debug: Starting GUI loop...[0m
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/hplip/ui4/plugindiagnose.py", line 101, in NextButton_clicked
ok, sudo_ok = pkit.run_plugin_command(plugin == PLUGIN_REQUIRED,
plugin_reason)
File "/usr/share/hplip/base/pkit.py", line 472, in run_plugin_command
su_sudo = utils.su_sudo()
File "/usr/share/hplip/base/utils.py", line 1782, in su_sudo
elif utils.which('/usr/lib/kde4/libexec/kdesu'):
NameError: global name 'utils' is not defined
Done.
-----------------------------------------------
According to this, "/usr/share/hplip/base/utils.py" file may contains
"utils." at line no. 1782.
I think, please do fresh installation from
"http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/install.html". If your distro is Ubuntu,
suse, debian, linux mint or fedora, then follow Auto Installation
(http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/install/install/index.html)
Otherwise go for Manual Installation.
Details installation steps given in this site.
Thanks & Regards,
Amarnath

Title:
Automatic plug-in installation not working under Ubuntu
Status in HP Linux Imaging and Printing:
Invalid
Status in “hplip” package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Status in “policykit” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I have packaged HPLIP 3.11.12 for Ubuntu Precise (12.04) and I have
also backported this package to Oneiric (11.10, package in my PPA:
https://launchpad.net/~till-kamppeter/+archive/ppa).
With the binary package hplip-gui and all its dependencies installed
the plug-in should be downloaded and installed automatically if a
printer gets connected which requires the plug-in, via the newly added
feature of HPLIP 3.11.12.
It seems that when hp-systray calls hp-plugin, hp-plugin gets run as
normal user (not as root) and then it is not able to install the files
of the plug-in in subdirectories of /usr/share/hplip and /etc where
only root has write access.
What needs to be done here is to use PolicyKit or tools like gksudo.
Is such a thing actually used?
