For my HP it however requires a binary plugin from HP, which it tries to install automatically, but fails. It downloads: http://www.linuxprinting.org/download/printdriver/auxfiles/HP/plugins/hplip-2.8.12-plugin.run It aborts with: ./hplip-2.8.12-plugin.run: line 369: ./hplip-plugin-install: Permission denied (even when run as root, which is required by the script) When the --keep parameter is used for the script (manual install) it apparently installs, but xsane 0.996 reports "Error during device I/O" when it tries to connect to the scanner. Note that hp-scan does not work for this scanner (yet), which is a known issue: http://hplipopensource.com/node/312 Users with a non-open source HP driver therefore may not benefit from this update.

There's absolutely nothing we can do about this. Please report it to HP.

This kind of printer requires a "firmware" to be downloaded before printing tasks. I installed the hplip-gui to do this. Whilst I run "HP Toolbox", and click "Download Firmware" there is nothing happen in the printer, an later I have got an error message. I have seen the green "Install Required Plugin" icon, and then click on it. But still nothing happen and the "Download Firmware" icon is still not work at all. At last, I have tried to use CLI rather GUI to do this. I run the command "sudo hp-setup" in a console. An installation guild dialogue appears and then I can go through the steps. Now it works just perfectly. I suppose this is an issue of security. If "install required plugin" can only running as root, then we should have another link under "System Management" and then run through gksudo. This can avoid the confusing of newbies.
