Bug Description
I'm using hplip with a driver only install on my laptop. It is configured with these flags:
./configure --prefix=/usr --build=
I added a new HP 401dne with the driver "HP LaserJet 400 M401dne Postscript (recommended)". But I'm not able to print, I receive the following error:
Idle - "File "/usr/libexec/
The same applies for to "HP Color LaserJet CP4020-CP4520 Series Postscript (recommended)".
I took a look in the configure script and have seen that if $hpcups_only_build is true $HPLIP_BUILD_TRUE is set to '#', which leads to
# hpps (Finishing PS filter)
##findir = $(cupsfilterdir)
##dist_fin_SCRIPTS = prnt/filters/hpps
in the generated Makefile.
Would someone please have a look at this issue? hplip-3.16.11 still has this issue.
Lots of printers in prnt/ps use '*cupsFilter: "application/ vnd.cups- postscript 0 hpps"' and are therefor not usable with --enable- hpcups- only-build. As this file is needed for these PS printers you should reconsider the logic in configure(.in) and/or Makefile(.in).
