This bug is old so lets renew this a bit with my experience on Ubuntu Mate 16.04... I have a HP LaserJet P1102w
Installation detected the printer on the network and everything seemed fine until i tried printing, it did not work. i new i needed to run hp-plugin at this point but there was no information or any specific error pointing me to it. Running hp-plugin failed with it complaining about a missing gui library of some kind. After installing hplip-gui, running hp-plugin as a normal user went smootly. It asked for my password and installed fine. The printer was working after that. There is a feature request for the missing hplip-gui... https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-meta/+bug/802304 Sorry not sure if i should close this bug or not... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/913730 Title: Automatic plug-in installation not working under Ubuntu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hplip/+bug/913730/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
