https://askubuntu.com/questions/990970/how-to-install-hplip-3-17-11
-under-ubuntu-17-10-for-hp-officejet-pro-8720
I'm using Ubuntu 17.10
According to the release notes https://developers.hp.com/hp-linux-
imaging-and-printing/release_notes I need hplip 3.17.11.
When I install hplip from using apt-get I get the following error when
I execute hp-check:
The error is the following (distro not supported) File
"/usr/share/hplip/installer/core_install.py", line 475, in init
self.distro_name = self.distros_index[self.distro]
I've tried installing from the shell installer with the following:
error: Configure failed with error: libnetsnmp not found
When I do the following:
sudo apt-get install libsnmp-dev
I get
libsnmp-dev is already the newest version (5.7.3+dfsg-1.7ubuntu1)
And apt is an older version
apt-cache policy hplip
hplip:
Installed: 3.17.7+repack0-3
Candidate: 3.17.7+repack0-3
Version table:
*** 3.17.7+repack0-3 500
500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu artful/main amd64 Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
Anyone have any ideas on how I can install and/or debug this?
