Hey, I've adopted this package and applied some of the suggestions:

  • Add missing dependencies, notably libusb-compat and sane (cred @ZhandHua).
  • Depend on exact version of hplip (cred @jsn42).

In addition, the PGP-signature of the artifact is now checked, which means you need to fetch upstream's key:

gpg --keyserver hkps://keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 4ABA2F66DBD5A95894910E0673D770CDA59047B9

Unfortunately, I have no HP printer at home so my testing ability is limited to running hp-diagnose_plugin. If someone has better opportunity to test and is interested in maintaining, let me know and I'll handover the package or add you as a co-maintainer. Cheers!

@ chris2kari please remove your comments since they address a non-existing problem. I keep the version numbers of hplip-plugin equal to hplip from arch's repos.

Yeah, tried nuking the database lock file & forcing a resync etc.. Package versions change quickly so simple clear instructions left here to help other stuck with the problem going forward.

Solution -------- 1) Remove the hplip-plugin: yaourt -R hplip-plugin 2) Download the prcompiled plugin from HP here: http://www.openprinting.org/download/printdriver/auxfiles/HP/plugins/ 3) Make the plugin executable: chmod +x hplip-3.15.2-plugin.run 4) Run it as root: sudo ./hplip-3.15.2-plugin.run 5) Follow the prompts. Your printing now works again.
