Hey Ron Couple questions for ya...
1. Did you run the installer or use the tar file for install? 2. After adding yourself to the lp group, did you logout and back in? 3. If you did logout and back in, did you unplug your printer usb connnection and reconnect? thanks for your time. jh Ron wrote: > Chuck Hast <wchast <at> gmail.com> writes: > >> When I run HP-toolbox as a local user (when I set up hplip, it asked me if >> I wanted the local users to have access to the print system, I responded >> yes so figured that as a local user I hp-toolbox would work) I get the >> follow- >> ing error messages: >> >> >> If I run it as root, all is OK the devices are found and I can use the >> toolbox >> to scan and print.
