HPLIP 3.15.7 plugin

Asked by Armand Brisson

I am using ubuntu 15.04
I did update to HPLIP 3.15.7
When installing plugin i got messages
error: Plugin download failed with error code = 8
error: file does not match its checksum. File may have been corrupted or altered

Now i cannot use any of my hp printers.

Is there a know issue about this plugin or hp download site?

Thank you for your help

Sourceforge site is down and unfortunately hp-plugin utility is not able to fetch the plugin.conf from sorceforge site.
Can you directly download the plugin files from here:
https://www.openprinting.org/download/printdriver/auxfiles/HP/plugins/hplip-3.15.7-plugin.run
https://www.openprinting.org/download/printdriver/auxfiles/HP/plugins/hplip-3.15.7-plugin.run.asc

To install the plugin file you can run command 'sh hplip-3.15.7-plugin.run' in terminal or you can run command 'hp-plugin' in terminal and choose the second option to manually select the hplip-3.15.7-plugin.run file and install.

Run command 'hp-setup' to configure the print queue.

Goutam suggestion will work. In plugin installation selected location of the file (path to the downloaded plugin)
