Setup HP LaserJet P1007
I have HP LaserJet P1007 printer and running Trisquel 7.0 LTS. I want to setup printer.
I connected to printer but can't find/detect printer in System-Settings > Printers (gnome-control-center printers). On Ubuntu I used to setup my this printer by hp-setup But on Trisquel hp-setup also can't find my printer.
Here is my lsusb output which shows by printer:
$ lsusb Bus 001 Device 005: ID 12d1:1436 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. E173 3G Modem (modem-mode) Bus 001 Device 006: ID 03f0:4817 Hewlett-Packard Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 002 Device 002: ID 093a:2510 Pixart Imaging, Inc. Optical Mouse Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
In which second line shows Hewlett-Packard
On the [http://www.h-node.org/printers/catalogue/en h-node printer site] I can't find my model.
Now, How can setup HP LaserJet P1007 on Trisquel 7.0?
I have installed hplip-3.14.10.run for HP LaserJet P1007 printer through http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/install_wizard/index.html (by selecting Ubuntu 14.04 as Trisquel is not listed) and read installation procedure.
But getting Error for missing dependencies:
ENTER ROOT/SUPERUSER PASSWORD ----------------------------- Please enter the root/superuser password: RUNNING PRE-INSTALL COMMANDS ---------------------------- OK INSTALL MISSING REQUIRED DEPENDENCIES ------------------------------------- warning: There are 6 missing REQUIRED dependencies. note: Installation of dependencies requires an active internet connection. warning: Missing REQUIRED dependency: python-devel (Python devel - Python development files) warning: This installer cannot install 'python-devel' for your distro/OS and/or version. error: Installation cannot continue without this dependency. Please manually install this dependency and re-run this installer.
And 'python-devel' is not available on http://packages.trisquel.info/ ; can I use 'python-dev' instead?
Unfortunately looks like that printer requires proprietary software to operate http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/plugin.html
The rules of this forum prohibit us from discussing such nasty things here https://trisquel.info/en/wiki/trisquel-community-guidelines
OK. I am also closing this discussion from my side. [By the way for installing missing dependencies; following packages are required/recommended for HPLIP]
