For the first time in about 10 or 12 versions of Fedora, I cannot simply
install my HP p1102w Laserjet Pro printer using HPLIP.

For the first several hours I kept getting:

 "HPLIP cannot detect printers in your network. This may be due to existing 
firewall settings blocking the required ports. When you are in a trusted 
network environment, you may open the ports for network services like mdns and 
slp in the firewall. For detailed steps follow the link.

Nope. Turning off firewall didn't help. Ping showed printer ip alive.
Windows on a dual boot laptop worked immediately with the printer in the
same network. Windows in a VirtualBox VM running under Linux worked
immediately. Multiple machinations failed and eventually the network
failed entirely on the printer and I did a full reset. Reset turned
networking back on, DHCP from the router gave the printer the fixed IP
and Windows could again print to the printer.

Trying earlier versions of HPLIP (since earlier versions worked fine on
all 4 Fedora machines we have in the house) failed due to dependency
issues. Went back to HPLIP installed from repo. Failed. Found advice to
get HPLIP-3.19.6.run and use it to manually make the HPLIP files. Did
that.

That got me to the place where it stated that I needed a plugin and
could install it from HP via the network. I agreed. Plugin installed
successfully. So, that means the printer was found? but then when it
said I could install the printer from there--I got the ""HPLIP cannot
detect printers in your network." Switched to mDNS. No joy.

Title:
  HPLIP cannot detect printers in your network

Status in HPLIP:
  New
Status in hplip package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  On a fresh install of Kubuntu 17.04 I cannot add a network printer though the 
HPLIP Toolbox. I get an error message that says "HPLIP cannot detect printers 
in your network.
  This may be due to existing firewall settings blocking the required ports. 
When you are in a trusted network environment, you may open the ports for 
network services like mdns and slp in the firewall. For detailed steps follow 
the link. http://hplipopensource.com/node/374";

  However snmpwalk finds the printer perfectly fine
  $ snmpwalk -Os -c public -v 1 192.168.1.21 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.9.1.1.7.0 
  iso.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.9.1.1.7.0 = STRING:

  Other systems that were upgraded to 17.04 can still access and detect
  the printer.

  What I expect to happen:
  1. Open HPLIP Toolbox
  2. Add a network printer
  3. Printer is detected

  What happened instead
  1. Open HPLIP Toolbox
  2. Add a network printer
  3. No printers found
