[Michal Kysel]

During installation, there are dependencies, which are not in the repositories of 20.04 LTS, so script cannot install it. Installation failed.

Hi,

What is the output if you manually install the same package?

And instead of quaitting, did you try continue the installation?
What is the behaviour?

Please let me know.

Hello,
I solved this problem by workaround, which I found during my trial/error
attempts. I compiled and installed package from tgz, then I installed older
GUI packages from Ubuntu repository, and run commandline hp-setup for
install missing plugin. Now, I have "mixed" hplip on the computer, but I am
finally able printing and scanning on my old good HP Color LaserJet
CM2320mfp . I hope full featured and working version of hplip for Ubuntu
20.04 will be released soon.

Best regards,
Michal Kysel
