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 your comments don't make any sense; the current version of hplip in the Arch repo's is 3.15.4-1 (Last Updated: 2015-04-22) have you done a full system update before installing hplip-plugin 3.15.4-2? (pacman -Syu) are you using an outdated/out-of-sync mirror maybe?

chris2kari commented on 2015-05-06 00:09 (UTC)

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.

Please add the version number to the PKGBUILD as done in [1] to avoid surprises after hplip upgrades: depends=("hplip>=$pkgver" 'hplip<3.15.5') [1]: https://github.com/Lekensteyn/aur/commit/5ee6f852154acc35928d4b8dd07324935ed05027

due to hplip is in extra, why hplip-plugin is not adopted by any TU and put it in extra? by far, hplip-plugin _MUST_ has the same version of hplip, otherwise, the printer can not work(That is the reason of why my printer refuse to work before I update the hplip-plugin version today)

Hi, I'm maintaining this package now. Since I've never done this before I hope you'll be patient with me and I'm open for any hints and advice.

Hello, Sorry for the delay. As I am leaving ArchLinux, feel free to adopt this package ;) Best Regards.

If printing stopped for some, please consider downgrading to previous latest until maintainer updates. That's the only solution to continue printing until an update.
