hplip doesn't see my 1102w but its ping-able

Asked by david braun

I have an HP LaserJet Professional P 1102w connected wirelessly to my network. I can ping it. I can open its embedded webserver. Hp-probe finds it but it doesn't show up in the HP list of devices or the device manager if invoked from the system tray gui. What's going on? I have a couple of pictures but there doesn't seem to be a way to upload them from this page.

The only printer that appears in the HP system tray GUI is HPD6892B.

Hi,

What happens if you run below command:

$hp-setup 192.168.10.82

Well - 192.168.10.82 is the address of the printer that shows in the system
tray - I'm a bit reluctant to do anything that might break that one. The
one I'm having trouble with is at 192.168.10.83. However to answer your
question running "hp-setup 192.168.10.82" in a terminal window yields
$ hp-setup 192.168.10.82

As expected - this is the printer that seems to work. (BTW - I canceled out
of this one). Running "hp-setup 192.168.10.83" (the missing printer) looked
similar. It reported in the terminal window
$ hp-setup 192.168.10.83

and also popped up a window that showed

This was also kind of expected BUT I first checked to see if CUPS knew
about the HP 1102W and since it did and I believe hplip interfaces to CUPS
I canceled out again.
