Hi Fid,

What is the version of Ubuntu?

Try to install using using "Ubuntu software center" or "synaptic package manager"

Details about package:-
"gtk2-engines-pixbuf" package is for remove the gtk warnings and this can be ignored.
"xsane" package is required for scan functionality.

Thanks & Regards,
Amarnath

I'm not reallly using Ubuntu but a derivation of it. elementaryOS. It's based on 12.04 LTS.

I'm trying to install it the hard way, so to speak, using the terminal and that's the message I get. Oddly enough those errors were shown to me when I was using a live version of the distro. In a clean installation no error we shown to me and I tried to install the very same packages that HPLIP tried to install in the live version. Everything seems pretty much functional now.

there seems to exist a problem with the new versio though, but I'm gonna create a new topic reporting it.

Cheers and thanks for the answer :)
