Re: [Trisquel-users] Problem installing printer

[chris]

The problem is he has a version of HPLIP that is earlier than that which is  
needed by the printer. HP reports this printer requires at least 3.12.6.  
Trisquel 5.5 only has HPLIP 3.11.7 in its repositories. This is not a printer  
I would recommend. It is not recommended by HP and is at its end of life  
support wise. There are certain models which are better than others to get  
for Trisquel. This printer will work in Trisquel 6. That said it is free  
software friendly.

* Note: I can't be 100% certain on this. It is based on info from HP that is  
pretty good although I've found not always 100% clear/reliable due to  
identical models having different actual driver requirements. It could be for  
instance it'll actually need something newer than HPLIP 3.12.6 and Trisquel  
6.
