Cannot print on Open Suse 42.1
hello, I have an tries and trusted HP Officejet Pro 8500A and it works fien using windows 10, I have installed Open Suse 42.1 and installed HPLIP version 3.14.6 but the printer won't print. It gets the command to print but then stalls and all I get is "unable to ppen the initial device, quitting" printed on the paper. I have tried to install HLPIP version 3.16.2 but it hangs in the terminal at half way installation at "RUNNING PRE-PACKAGE COMMANDS". I have got a print-out from HP doctor which concludes "Checking for HP Properitery Plugin's....
No plug-in printers are configured.
Diagnose completed..."
can you assist in seeing if I can get the printer to work? Many thanks Philip
