Hi Richard,

When it comes to installing of the plugin files for your printer it will ask you to have sudo user previlages. By default the env variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH is not set for sudo user.
Will provide you the steps to set the same for sudo user:

1. Enter the folder /etc/ld.so.conf.d/
    $ cd /etc/ld.so.conf.d/

2. create a "conf" file by name "lib64.conf".
    $vim lib64.conf

3. Add the line /usr/lib64/ in the file lib64.conf

4. Run command "sudo ldconfig" to load the libraries.

5. Next run commad "sudo hp-plugin -g" and check whether you are able to download and install the plugin file.

Sorry for inconvenience.

Thanks & Regards,
Goutam Kodu
