Plugin fails to install; xsane, hplip, fedora 31 up to date as of today, laserjet pro m148fdw
Trying to scan with xsane on system described above. Printer is networked. Prints fine. Xsane sees the networked printer. When I select it upon starting xsane, I get a 'failed to open device' error, and a dialog box from HP Device Manager; requires proprietary plugin which is missing. I click 'next' to continue. On next screen I select 'Download and install the plugin from an HP authorized server', click next. I then get a checksum error (same error on multiple attempts).
