Ubuntu 12.10 - HP Deskjet 3512 - Can't print
I recently upgraded to Ubuntu 12.10 and all was well using my HP j5700 printer. I bought a new printer HP Deskjet 3512 and was surprised to find it was not supported by this version of Ubuntu. I followed instructions at http://

This is free software, and you are welcome to distribute it
under certain conditions. See COPYING file for more details.
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).
Check types:
a. EXTERNALDEP - External Dependencies
b. GENERALDEP - General Dependencies (required both at compile and run time)
c. COMPILEDEP - Compile time Dependencies
d. [All are run-time checks]

rob@rob-
I know this may have resulted from my new and potentially unsupported Ubuntu distro, but I hoped there might be some fix other than returning to 12.04 (Which I installed on another computer and the printer works.) I welcome any help or suggestion. Thanks!
