The issue is with one of the patches. I've forked the repo and fixed it:

https://github.com/yawor/arch-foo2zjs-nightly, fixed version is on branch fix_20200505

You're free to use it if you want

Same problem : https://pastebin.com/nY02MmzF

An alternative is to use hplip (pacman)

  • Download files : hplip-3.20.3-plugin.run and hplip-3.20.3-plugin.run.asc (https://developers.hp.com/hp-linux-imaging-and-printing/plugins)

  • Launch sudo hp-plugin (Specify a path to the plug-in (advanced) : enter the path to downloaded files)

  • I received the error Unable to recieve key from keyserver but I said still want to install the plug-in

Thanks to the maintainer, @intelfx.

Below is the complete set of commands which worked for my HP LaserJet 1020:

pacman -S cups cups-pdf
cd ~/git
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/foo2zjs-nightly.git
cd foo2zjs-nightly/
makepkg -si
sudo usermod -a -G lp sergei # said by foo2zjs-nightly
sudo usermod -a -G wheel sergei # needed to be able to administer cups, see /etc/cups/cups-files.conf, administrator user groups are sys wheel root
sudo systemctl enable org.cups.cupsd.socket
firefox http://localhost:631/
# enter your linux login and password
# Administration - Add Printer - Continue - Continue - Select the printer model - Set Default Options - Add Printer
# Printers - you should see your added printer here
# Now the printer is ready to print

What's supposed to be the bug with ghostscript 9? i just installed foo2zjs for an hp 2600n and the test page looks ok (not great, but not "nasty" either)

thanks @intelfx. you're a life saver for me. But for your (this package), I would have been forced to change distribution that offers solution to my HP1020+ printer (I have 3 Nos in my SOHO). HPLIP toolkit never worked for me and I missed this package greatly. Many thanks to you, sir!
