Dear sir, I am a new user of linux. I want to install P1108 in my UBUNTU 14.04. I installed the hplip 3.14.10. Now when I am going to print a test page, a pop-up appears saying that I need to install proprietary plug in. Now I want to install the plugin through hp-doctor, but internet connection is not detected by hplip. I am sending you the outputs of some commands. The printer is very much needey by me. Thank you in advace.. $uname -a Linux HPT 3.13.0-24-generic #47-Ubuntu SMP Fri May 2 23:30:00 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux $hp-check -t Saving output in log file: /home/pratik/Downloads/hplip-plugin/hp-check.log HP Linux Imaging and Printing System (ver. 3.14.10) Dependency/Version Check Utility ver. 15.1 Copyright (c) 2001-13 Hewlett-Packard Development Company, LP This software comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY.

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.
