HPLip cannot recognize M281fdn
Asked by
Rowland Barkley
I have deleted and reinstalled HPLip 3.19.11 several times in Ubuntu 19.10. No success after trying for some days. Hplip cannot find a printer that is already installed and working, except the scanner.
Can I totally purge this proprietary software and use this printer using open source drivers?
I see some people have had success by removing the latest version of HPlip and using an earlier version. But the plugin cannot find the printer not by IP address or USB.
I checked that requires ports are open. I installed the files direct from links on the HP website, and also tried by the Synaptic package manager. But in all cases HP cannot find the printer.
