I am trying to install hplip after upgrading to openSUSE 15.1. Can't get plugin to install.

Tried this. Only error was with finding python-notify. Would this prevent the plugin download?

No. Downloading directly from https://developers.hp.com/hp-linux-imaging-and-printing/plugins
is a straightforward operation independent of python.

Thanks. I got the downloads and ran hp-plugin with this result:

The advice pointed to does not involve running hp-plugin. I have no idea what
you are doing,

I have been trying for two days to install the hplip package. Seems I've
gotten to the stage where it needs the plugin.

hplip appears to be installed, but the plugin is not!

All seems to be ok, until I try to add a printer and I get the message
which says I need to install the plugin.

This all started when I got "filter failed" message trying to print a document.
The advice was to re-install the printer.
In doing so, hp-setup (called from Yast) went into tight loop.
I've tried the steps documented above with no good results.
Should I post on openSUSE forum?

Print to this device is working from my other Leap 15.1 computer.
