Kubuntu 17.10 Can't injstall/use P1606dn
I have an AMD-64 box running Kubuntu 17.10, and an HP_LaserJet_
Downloaded hplip-3.
Followed manual install instructions here: https:/
added my username to lp group
added my HP_LaserJet_
Opened System Settings > Printers and set the P1606dn as Default Printer
Reboot
Try to print something (eg. a google web page), no luck, check ....
$ lpq
lpq: Error - no default destination available.
And, my P1606dn no longer shows in System Settings > Printers
hp-systray window appears with message below, but the included link is not working and I do not know how to do what it says ....
HPLIP cannot detect devices in your network. This may be due to existing firewall settings blocking the required ports like (5353/udp). When you are in a trusted network environment, you may open the ports for network services like mdns and slp in the firewall. For detailed steps follow the link.

(Lastly, I've repeated the process several times, and sometimes the P1606 *does* appear in System Settings > Printers after reboot, indicated as default, but there's still no print and the message lpq: Error - no default destination available, and if I try to set P1606 as default with sudo lpadmin -x, the P1606 immediately *disappears* from System Settings > Printers)

This software comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY.
This is free software, and you are welcome to distribute it
under certain conditions. See COPYING file for more details.
Note: hp-check can be run in three modes:
1. 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. [All are run-time checks]
