The QA team on Mageia is currently rather small, and we need some people who have hp printers to help testing an update to the hplip package.
The bug report for the update is https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2816 To install the update, run drakrpm-edit-media (or MCC/Software Management/Configure media sources for install and update), and enable the "Core Updates Testing" repository. Then run "urpmi hplip". Once it's installed, use drakrpm-edit-media or mcc to disable the "Core Updates Testing" repository. Note: If mgaapplet detects updates available, while the Testing repository is enabled, do not use it to install updates. :-) Then restart cups "service cups restart", and see if the printer is working. After that, either add an entry to the bug report, or reply to this post, and I'll add the info to the bug report. Please include whether or not it works, and what system you're using (32 or 64 bit, and type of printer). We are mainly interested in cases where hplip is currently working, to ensure this update doesn't create any new problems. Regards, Dave Hodgins
