Vincas Dargis (talkless) wrote : Missing HP P1102 laser printer darkness settings (i.e. "Extra dark")

Since 13.10 (both 64bit Ubuntu and Kubuntu) upgrade I cannot select "Extra dark" printer settings when printing from LibreOffice, GIMP, Inkscape, Kate or whatever with HP LaserJet P1102 on Dell Inspiron 1520.

There is no such option in global printer settings also, both Ubuntu and Kubuntu.

There are "Pritint quality: Draft, Normal"; "Output mode: Grayscale" and others, but that "darnkess" is missing (I do not even rememer how it was called, last time I used it late in 13.04). There are no problems with printing itself though.

Driver name in printer dialog:
"HP_LaserJet_Professional_P1102"
"Automatically setup by HPLIP"
"hp:/usb/HP_LaserJet_Professional_P1102?serial=000000000Q854HW7PR1a"
"HP LaserJet Professional p1102, hpcups 3.13.9, requires proprietary plugin".

I remeber I had to launch "hp-plugin" to make this printer work on 13.10, as it was automatclly deceted, but failed to print.

Some more info:
$ cat /var/lib/hp/hplip.state
[plugin]
installed = 1
eula = 1
version = 3.13.9
