Bug Description
1. Linux Distribution and version:
Arch Linux
4.1.5-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue Aug 11 15:41:14 CEST 2015 x86_64 GNU/Linux
2. Printer make/model.
HP Laser Jet M1132 MFP
3. If possible, run 'hp-check -t' and post the output.
4. A detailed explanation of your problem.
Sometimes after upgrading arch linux system I have to run again "hp-setup" to make my printer capable to print again.
But last time I upgraded to hplip-3.15.7-1 version, I couldn't make my printer to work again with that version.
Lots of times I tried to set it up using "hp-setup -i" I got stucked after answer "yes" to the license agreement for the plugin installation. When I answer "yes" the program stay rolling that "wait" bar for ever in the corner of my terminal screen like this:
- \ | / - \ | / -...
I also tried direct download the plugin at http://
But got the same problem when I run it from the command line. It keeps rolling the "wait" bar for ever...
5. Steps to recreate the problem.
a- Download hplip-3.
b- Change hplip-3.
c- Run it ./hplip-
d- Answer "yes" for the license agreement and you see that rolling for ever
Solution for me:
I downgraded to hplip-3.15.6

Hmm, hp-plugin [-i] (3.15.7) works for me in GNOME3/gtk3.
You might try to run it with (-g) but other than that I'm not sure how to further debug this.

I tried this on Ubuntu Wily.
If I run
hp-plugin
on the command line, all works perfectly. After agreeing with the license I get asked for my password (for installing the files into the system) and after that it says that the plugin got successfully installed and I can close the window.
If I manually download the plugin and run it on the command line I get

So as "hp-plugin" works no real problem on Ubuntu Wily.

A new Fedora 22 installation from scratch using the MATE Spin Live DVD and installing all the upgrades before setting up the printer behaves the same. This time it happened on a computer with a HP LaserJet 1020 printer attached.
The workaround I found is to do this:
$ mkdir HP
$ cd HP
$ wget https:/
$ chmod +x hplip-3.
$ ./hplip-
$ cd plugin_tmp
In the plugin_tmp directory, edit plugin_install.py and either remove or comment out lines 42-44.
Then:
$ sudo ./hplip-
or
$ sudo ./hplip-
This workaround helped with the LaserJet 1020 printer to print and I can scan with my HP LaserJet Pro MFP printer, too.

Another note I have to add (should be in a different ticket) is that the firmware for the LJ1020 is not loaded automatically. I have to create a panel icon to run "hp-firmware" before the user wants to print.

That's bug #1033952 (should be fixed in Fedora 23).

This does not work for me on Kubuntu Wily! See Bug #1502025 for details.
If I run
hp-plugin
on the command line, after agreeing with the license I do not get asked for the password and the activity indicator keeps spinning forever.
Manual download fails in the same manner as already described by Till Kamppeter.
Is there a way to work around this?

I have the same problem on my debian sid install. When I installed hplip I had to switch to root to install it as otherwise the spinning bar would spin forever after asking my password. Unfortunately hp-plugin cannot be run as root so I have the spinning bar issue here. I think it's a problem when trying to call su.

When you all get the hang, I get a pop-up asking me for user name and password with my user name pre-filled I enter the password then and the installation finishes successfully.
As I am the only user on my laptop, the account is the privileged account which can execute command as root using "sudo". Perhaps running as unprivileged user the process simply hangs (instead of giving an error telling that the current user is not allowed to do root tasks).
Ubuntu users, please log in as the first (admin/privileged) user and run
hp-plugin
If this does not work, try
sudo hp-plugin
Please tell whether one of these suggestions make the installation working.

without sudo is the output is exactly the same as in post #6 except for the hplip version.

Any news on this issue? It still does not work here. Anyone knows a workaround?
Ilya Barygin (randomaction) wrote : | #10 |
WORKAROUND
1. While the plugin installer is hanging, copy ~/.hplip/plugin_tmp into another directory.
2. Stop the hanging installer.
3. From the directory copy, run "sudo python3 installPlugin.py".
4. Plugin is installed, run hp-setup as normal.

Thanks Ilya for the workaround. That worked. But for some weird reason I can still not print on the printer but that's probably a different story.

I am having the same problem with hplip on Wily Werewolf. I have tried installing hplip 3.15.11 and 3.15.6 instead of the default 3.15.7 but in both cases installation gets stuck after accepting license term. The only solution that worked for me was the workaround first suggested by Ilya Barygin here.
I have some additional comments that I have not see anyone else here mention:
1) when I run hp-check, it says, among other things:
warning: ubuntu-15.10 version is not supported. Using ubuntu-15.04 versions dependencies to verify and install...
2) After installing a number of earlier versions of ubuntu & hplip combo, including this one, I have *always* had to fix protection problems:
chmod go-w ~/.hplip/hplip.conf
chmod go= ~/.hplip/.gnupg/
sudo chmod +r /etc/cups/
Especially the wrong protection of the .gnupg directory is pretty unforgivable in my book. The .ppd file protection fix was needed because some (but not all) applications failed to print.
Aimo Ella (aimo-ella) wrote : | #20 |
Sorry, I have to corrrect my statement. It is the plugin installation that gets jammed after license confirmation. The installation, of the whole hplip package, however, gets jammed right after having asked the sudoer password. The hp-doctor command also gets jammed in exactly the same way.

This bug was opened for Fedora 22, which is still supported, and still very much has this error. I checked Koji, and the most recent hplip build, for Fedora 22, is hplip-3.15.9-3.fc22 <http://
The differences between hplip-3.15.9-1 (comment 12) and hplip-3.15.9-3 (the most recent Fedora 22 build in Koji) do not address this issue; according to the RPM changelog, those changes target bug 1266903 and bug 1241548. (Which are not listed here as duplicates.)
Hence, in my opinion, this bug has not been fixed. Can you please build the fixed package for Fedora 22 as well? (For now I'll have to try building hplip-3.16.3-1 locally, on Fedora22.) Thanks.

I could rebuild the hplip-3.16.3-1.fc23 SRPM locally on Fedora 22, and the plugin installation succeeded (although the rotten keyserver timed out -- how frustrating). So please make the fix available for Fedora 22 as well. Thanks!

Description of problem:
After upgrading to HPLIP 3.15.7-1, scanning on my LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP M276mw ceased to work, as usual, the plugins must be updated.
Now, when running "sudo hp-plugin -i" I am greeted with:
error: hp-plugin should not be run as root/superuser
OK, tried again with my user but I don't know how it will install the plugins system-wide. Now, "hp-plugin -i" seems to work, until after it properly downloaded hplip-3. 15.7-plugin. run. Then it just spins its progress indicator and "pstree -pl" shows this:
|-bash( 7573)-- -hp-plugin( 10319)- --sh(10356) ---hplip- plugin- in(10414) ---python3( 10417)- --su(10443)
Apparently, "su" is run but no root password prompt is shown and neither any GUI helper shows up in X11. Ctrl-C obviously stops "su" and hp-plugin reports the keyboard stopping, the result is that no plugin is installed.
"dnf downgrade hplip hplip-gui hpijs hplip-compat-libs libsane-hpaio hplip-libs hplip-common" downgraded to 3.15.2 but "sudo hp-plugin -i" shows the same error as the last comment in #1196237 :
error: /root/. hplip/hplip- 3.15.2- plugin. run file does not match its checksum. File may have been corrupted or altered
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
3.15.7-1.fc22
How reproducible:
Always.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run "hp-plugin -i"
2.
3.
Actual results:
As described above.
Expected results:
"hp-plugin -i" should be able to run as root as it always did. After all, machines can be upgraded remotely and setting them up should also be able to be done by the administrator.
Additional info:
Running "hp-plugin" without "-i" does the same, but with the wizard window shown up. The download progress is shown but after pressing the Next button makes it stall, too. The "su" command is also there in pstree.
