HP LaserJet MFP M28a on Raspberry Pi 3

Asked by Murat Can Ozdemir

I want to use HP LaserJet MFP M28a on a Raspberry Pi 3. HPLIP supported on arm processors currently is 3.16.11, and the closest ppd that supports MFP M28a comes in 3.18.4 - not exactly though, it's M28w, but even that ppd doesn't work on CUPS. Please provide me with a working combination.

In https://developers.hp.com/hp-linux-imaging-and-printing/supported_devices/index there is also an entry for the "HP LaserJet Pro MFP M28a" (requiring 3.18.4).

Which operating system are you running on your Raspberry Pi?

Meanwhile there is a snap version of HPLIP available also for arm64 and armhf, maybe that can serve your needs.

and https://github.com/OpenPrinting/hplip-printer-app#installing-and-building

Working on Raspbian didn't produce good results.

Now I'm working with DietPi, and was able to install hpcups 3.21.2, which includes the driver support. It's resolved now, thanks!
