install HP5200C scanner

What is the output of:

lsb_release -a; uname -a; lsusb; apt-cache policy hplip

Plug the device into the USB port.

I figured out how to issue commands. Here is the output. Please help. Thanks. Andy

cd ~

wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/hplip/hplip-3.15.9.run

chmod +x ./hplip-3.15.9.run

./hplip-3.15.9.run

Thank you so much for your help.
Unfortunately, I believe that this is a wrong driver. During installation, it was constantly telling me that this was a printer driver. What was worse was the fact that it made my current printer unusable. I had to reinstall the entire system from scratch to get back my printer. I had to do it twice because when I installed Ubuntu with updates it did not work either. I got different screens and options when I installed Ubuntu without updates, When I do lsusb command it sees the HP5200C scanner but I do not know how I can make it work. Please help.
Thank you
