problems with hplip-3.5.7
After upgrading hplip from 3.15.2 to 3.15.7, my printer (HP Laserjet Professional P1102) did not work, an appropriate driver was not found, and I was asked (from hplip toolbox) to download one. But the download did never end, and hplip seemed to be frozen.
After reinstalling hplip-3.15.2 my printer worked again. It seems that something is broken in the plugin management in hplip-3.15.7. |
Are you using -current? There was a report of hplip-3.15.2 requiring PyQT4-4.11.4 which entered -current along with hplip-3.15.7 on 14-Aug-2015 http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...2/#post5405000

Yes, I am using slackware64-current.

Me too, with HP_LaserJet_Pro_MFP_M127fn
Error "Filter failed" I tried delete, reinstall printer with cups, with hp-setup, reinstall plugin, etc... Slackware 64 current |
I have a HP Color LaserJet MFP M476DW and it works fine (printing/scanning) after reinstalling the plugin from the GUI.
From the log of my script that tracks orphaned files/dirs/symlinks these look related to the hplip plugin install: Code:
------------- Code:
removepkg cups cups-filters hplip Cheers |
Done,
In error.log I see Code:
D [19/Aug/2015:18:22:21 +0200] [Job 590] PID 8997 (/usr/lib64/cups/filter/hpcups) crashed on signal 6. Code:
E [20/Aug/2015:07:28:05 +0200] [Job 1] Job stopped due to filter errors; please consult the error_log file for details. |
Hi ivandi,
I have done this also, and I have been told that a proprietary driver is required: Driver: HP LaserJet Professional p1102, hpcups 3.15.7, requires proprietary plugin (color) (the strange thing is that this printer is monochrome). When I try to download this driver, in the recommended way, nothing happens. |
Rebuilding hplip 3.15.4 (.2 not support my printer) works fine.

The same problem with proprietary plugins reported here:

foo2zjs supports HP LaserJet Pro P1102. I used it some years ago with HPLJ1020 and it worked fine. No need for hplip. foo2zjs.SlackBuild Cheers |
@ivandi
I know foozjs, and I have used it with hplip-3.15.2. Now I have tried this: - uninstall hplip - install foo2zjs - install my printer in CUPS and my printer works again. I can even reinstall hplip-3.15.7, but some useful HP tools, such as hp-levels, do not work anymore, as they did with hplip-3.15.2. But it is impossible to make foo2zjs work with hplip-3.15.7 already installed, it it necessary to remove it before. Maybe it is because HP P1102 is supposed to be supported in hplip-3.15.7 (but is not really), and some files interfere. |
the patch is here:
http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/hplip.git/tree/ "hplip-CommonDefinations.patch" |
The new package hplip-3.15.7-x86_64-2 did not solve the problem. It is still impossible to install the appropriate plugin.
I have uninstalled hplip, and use again foo2zjz, which works. |

But I had to install the plugin with graphical frontend, the command line hpsetup gave error. |
