HPLIP

How do I download the hplip plugins and make them executable?

Asked by Manuel Díaz

If I click on the "hplip-3.22.2-plugin.run" file, it doesn't download, the code opens, but I don't know how to use it.
The problem I have is that in ubuntu 20.04 it does not let me install the plugins for my printer. It gives me an error in the installation.

Open a terminal window, change directory to where the plugin.run file is stored (e.g. "cd Downloads") and enter the command

sh ./hplip-3.22.2-plugin.run

What happens?
