Be aware that if you choose a really new model from HP, the support
for all its features may not be in HPLIP yet.
In my case I can print, but I still don't have the ability to scan.
Probably not your issue, though.
I have some time today, so I tried getting this working.
hplip-3.19.8.run installed and prints just fine, but still no scanner.
But somehow I ran the process differently and got this error message:
Failed to open device
'hpaio:/net/HP_LaserJet_Pro_M148-149?ip=192.168.0.109
Error during device I/O.
Using the HP Device Manager I got a more useful error indication. In the
Status tap I found:
Scan job failed – Required plug-in not found Code 2003
Please run hp-plugin to install the required plug-in
I ran hp-plugin. After agreeing to the terms the installation failed.
I found the solution at:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/hplip/+bug/1813768
The problem is with apparmor. The solution is to install and run
apparmor utils:
sudo apt-get install apparmor-utils
sudo aa-disable /usr/share/
and then run hp-plugin again.
This time the install completed, and I can now run xsane.
