[Smart-connect] hp-setup can't find m1132 MFP on USB (ubuntu 11.10)
Hi,
I just bought a HP LaserJet Professional m1132 MFP and can't make it work on my Ubuntu 11.10 machine.
If I just plug it, the printer gets found and installed automatically into System/
So I tried to run hp-setup (both with sudo or not) and, weirdly since my machine obviously see the printer, hp-setup cannot find it and fails with "error: No devices found on bus: usb", sometimes popping up a (Device Communication error 5012)
hp-toolbox also pops out this error message "error: Unable to communicate with device (code=12): hp:/usb/
Below is the output of hp-setup -tb.
Thanks a lot in advance!
