I have been unable to successfully install this printer which is on my
home network. The ip address of the printer is 192.168.1.3
I followed the instructions in the hplip page for the auto install and
it seemed to fail at the make command. I then went through the manual
install and the HP-check readout is below.
I am confused as there does not seem to be a set of full instructions.
I have tried CUPS, YAST and others, but there is not written process...I
am getting real frustrated
Thanks for any assistance,
