Thank you for the outputs.
We are working on it. Will update you soon on this.

Some problem on Debian 8.1

=====plugin_install.py=====
if os.geteuid() == 0:

Dear friends,

Any updates on this question? I encountered the exact issue with hplip 3.15.9 on Fedora 23 64 bits. Should I add a follow-up?

Regards

We are working on the fix. You can find the work around for the same provided by Sergey here https://bugs.launchpad.net/hplip/+bug/1521006.

We apologize for the inconvenience

Dear goutam,

please, no need to apologize! Thank you very much for working on such awesome project! I was just worried I could be stuck in some localized issue instead of a more general one.

I will try the workaround you've linked in your reply, thank you.

All the best!

Hello!
So anybody know how to fix this problem?
I have the same symptoms: accept license agreement and get stuck

> https://bugs.launchpad.net/hplip/+bug/1521006
Here Sergey Dovganyuk wrote the workaround:

> $ cd ~/.hplip/plugin_tmp/
> $ /usr/bin/sudo /usr/bin/python installPlugin.py
> Executing installPlugin.py

But it doesn't work for me, I have no .hplip directory and installPlugin.py too.
Can anybody write the step by step commands?

Thanks!

Hi Kanatov,

What is the hplip version installed in your system ?
If hplip-3.15.11 is installed in your system can you try running command :

sh hplip-3.15.11-plugin.run -- -ig

You can download the file hplip-3.15.11-plugin.run from here https://www.openprinting.org/download/printdriver/auxfiles/HP/plugins/hplip-3.15.11-plugin.run and run the above command and paste the output here.

Please let us know the linux os distribution name and version number that you are using.

Thanks,
Goutam

Also please let us know the python version getting used: python --version

Thanks for your help, Goutam.

Sergey Dovganyuk already help me with it.
There is the step-by step tutorial that I've done:

1. Open new Terminal window an run:
$ sudo hplip-3.15.11.run

2. Follow the wizard and get an error: "Please run 'hp-plugin' as normal user to install plug-ins".

3. Close the wizard and this terminal window.

4. Open new Terminal window an run:
$ hp-plugin

5. Accept the license and get stuck.

6. Open new terminal window and run:
$ cd ~/.hplip/plugin_tmp/
$ /usr/bin/sudo /usr/bin/python installPlugin.py

7. After "Executing installPlugin.py" close this terminal window and terminate first one.

Hi all,

I get stuck with the work around to on OpenSuse 13.1 (at the end of step 7 of post right above #12). See the messages got below.

Any ideas what should I try?

Thanks,
Benedek

Hello Benedek and Daniel,

Can you try below steps.

1)Add below entries to the end of EXPECT_WORD_LIST in /usr/share/hplip/base/utils.py

                "Password:",
               u"Jelszó:",

2) Save the file

3) Run the plugin command again i.e
     sh hplip-3.15.11-plugin.run -- -ig'
                              or
     sh hplip-3.15.7-plugin.run -- -ig'

Thanks,
Sanjay

Dear Goutam and Sanjay,

I tried both, and led to the same output with only one difference. The number in the hplip-plugin-install[4302]: debug: lines changed to 2529in Goutam's case 2755 and 2952 in Sanjay's case respectively depending on that I wrote "Password:" and "Jelszó:", or "Password" and "Jelszó".

Regards,
Benedek

Hello Benedek,

Looks like you have not prefixed 'u' before "Jelszó:".

Please add u"Jelszó:", and then let me know the result.

Thanks,
Sanjay

Dear Sajnay,

thank you, you are right! Now it works, I could set up I printer and it prints and scans.

Best regards!
Benedek
