HP Laser Jet M1132 MFP in network with dynamic IP

First and foremost provide the "hp-check -t" output as requested in
http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/support.html
so that others have abetter chance to understand
your particular setup.

To find out what the root cause could be
why "/usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip failed"
you need to inspect the CUPS debug messages.
You may have a look at
http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:How_to_Report_a_Printing_Issue
how you can get CUPS debug messages.

Furthermore to find out whether or not it works to send data
via Samba to your printer share on your Windows XP machine
you may have a look at
http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Printing_via_SMB_%28Samba%29_Share_or_Windows_Share
how you could send data manually to verify if it works or not.

Hello Johannes,

thank you for the quick respond. A problem occurs when I run 'hp-check -t'. From the last position at the end of the post the check does not continue. I've installed the printer with CUPS. But on the other side, meanwhile something interesting occured. Since it is a printer server we use, I switched the printer and the other one, also from HP works without any problems. But since the desired one is faster and more ecological I really would prefer to use it.

Note: hp-check can be run in three modes:
1. Compile-time check mode (-c or --compile): Use this mode before compiling the
HPLIP supplied tarball (.tar.gz or .run) to determine if the proper dependencies
are installed to successfully compile HPLIP.
2. Run-time check mode (-r or --run): Use this mode to determine if a distro
supplied package (.deb, .rpm, etc) or an already built HPLIP supplied tarball
has the proper dependencies installed to successfully run.
3. Both compile- and run-time check mode (-b or --both) (Default): This mode
will check both of the above cases (both compile- and run-time dependencies).

Checking output of 'scanimage -L'...

If I understand it correctly you provided the 'hp-check -t' output
(as far as you got it) for a HP Color LaserJet CM1015 PostScript printer
which is probably the one that works for you which is no surprise
because it is a PostScript printer.

But in your initial comment you reported an issue with a
HP LaserJet Professional m1132 MFP
that requires a proprietary plugin and for this device
"/usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip failed".

To help with the one that does not work for you,
the 'hp-check -t' output for the device where it does not work
would be needed together with CUPS debug messages
and preferably with your results when you try to send
data manually to its SMB share.

A reasonable suspicion:

Because the HP LaserJet Professional m1132 MFP requires a proprietary plugin
it might be that this device cannot be used when it is "hidden" behind
a SMB share which does not provide direct communication
with the device (and not at all bi-directional communication
which makes scanning totally impossible via a SMB share).

I assume such devices can only be used when directly accessible
(e.g. via USB or perhaps also via direct network access)
by the PC where the HPLIP software runs so that the HPLIP
software can do bi-directional communication with the device.
