HPLIP installation question
Am trying to install an HP DeskJet 697C (not sure how old). OpenSourePrinting says it is supported and should work well.
I tried installing through System>Administration and that did not work. From research, it appears the best approach is to install using HPLIP through terminal.
?Can I install HPLIP without the printer being hooked up?
?Is the newest version of HPLIP compatible with all HP printers
OR is a specific version linked to a specific set of printers, i.e. by age or model?
I ran an HP check log and it said that CUPS backend was missing and 18 dependencies were not met. However, the log also said HPLIP was already installed on my computer and that the parallel port is recognized.
According to the install directions at HPLIP, using HPLIP should take care of everything. Yes or No?
