Bug Description
I need to clean my printer heads, and CUPS can't do it (see bug 428065 and bug 377812), so I'm trying hp-clean, part of the hplip package. The documentation doesn't say what it expects as a printer or device specifier, so I'm trying
hp-clean -pHP_Deskjet_
hp-clean -dusb:/
but they both fail in the same way:
$ hp-clean -pHP_Deskjet_

If hp-clean requires specific Qt and PyQt 4 packages to run, shouldn't that be a dependency? Or maybe hp-clean should be in hplip-gui rather than in hplip, if it won't run in non-GUI mode.

Hi,
Can you please post us the out-put of "hp-check -t" command and "hp-clean -i -g" command.
Thanks & Regards,
