Went to that page, was told that the current version is 3.18.5.
Trying to be helpful, I decided to wipe the hard drive and do a complete
reinstall of Ubuntu 3.18.5. Did that. Ran Software Updater to install any
Ubuntu updates that were pending.
Ran "sh hplip-3.18.5" and it didn't work. For more information I have
attached two log files and a screenshot.
By the way... I used to be a programmer and recently brushed up on my bash
skills and will be starting to learn Python this week. If there is anything
I can do to help, let me know.
