hp-setup error with Envy Photo 6230

[Fabrizio Renna]

- I have just bought a HP ENVY Photo 6230 printer and it is working very well in Wifi on a Windows PC. I wanted to install it also on my laptop provided with Linux Mint 18.3 Sylvia.

- I managed to complete installation of HPLIP driver (ver. 3.18.10) without any error.
Just a note: I had to run hplip-3.18.10.run as superuser (sudo).

- When I tried to complete Wireless connection using hp-setup and related GUI I obtain the following error:

=================================================================

It seems to be a bug in the python file/usr/share/hplip/base/utils.py.

Could you please provide a fix?
How can I modify this file to work?

I have attached also the complete output from hp-check script.
Thanks in advance.

Look at what cups-browsed has to offer you. You are in the second decade of of the 21st century and your printer fits well with driverless printing. You can, of course, wait for upstream HPLIP to attend to your bug.

After this length of time, and no response, it is most probable that the OP has solved his problem and is able to print.
