[Bug 330063] New: Hplip not installed upon yast2->hw-> printer configuration for HP devices
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=330063 Summary: Hplip not installed upon yast2->hw->printer configuration for HP devices Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: RC 1 Platform: i686 OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: vmicho@gmail.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- I have hp deskjet f380 (<=> f300 series). When first time selecting yast2->hardware->printer to configure the printer, yast downloads and installs some packages (gutenprint, hplip-hpijs), but not "hplip". This causes the printer/scanner doesn't work at all. So I need to install the additional "hplip" package. Then in printer list I need to "edit" the printer and change the "connection" to "hplip backend". Then the printing works. Note that a normal user will never figure him/herself these additional steps. This applies also to other hp devices which are usually supposed to work with hplip. Please change it so hplip is set automatically upon printer setup for HP devices. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I guess this is because yast currently (for 10.3 release) configures all HPLIP capable printers using the plain usb/lp connectivity, not hplip. So only printing will work (and hplip is thus unecessary).

(In reply to comment #0 from Michal Veselenyi) I guess this is because yast currently (for 10.3 release) configures all HPLIP capable printers using the plain usb/lp connectivity, not hplip. So only printing will work (and hplip is thus unecessary).
Well the problem is I didn't get any printing on my HP with that configuration. It seems some (maybe most) HP devices work only with hplip, not mentioning all-in-one devices with scanner which surely require hplip. So I consider mandatory installing hplip upon firts printer detection/configuration with yast for any printer/scanner from HP. .
That makes this bug depend on bug #309933 and bug #184798
Yes and no. The first one is some problems with parallel port if I understand. The second one won't apply if hplip is installed upon printer config. If it's installed, some more ho devices are listed in yast printer list and the printing works OK. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
