Learn how to setup printing services on Arch Linux for HP based printers connected via USB | ||
|
||
|
||
1. Connect your printer | ||
2. Installing CUPS and other required stuff | ||
```bash | ||
$ pacman -S cups | ||
$ systemctl enable cups | ||
$ systemctl start cups | ||
$ pacman -S hplip | ||
$ hp-setup -i | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Follow steps and download plugin, note the version number it download (hp-setup fails to download this anyways) | ||
Then download the specified version plugin from [here](https://developers.hp.com/hp-linux-imaging-and-printing/plugins). | ||
|
||
Re-run the following: | ||
```bash | ||
hp-setup -i | ||
|
||
``` | ||
|
||
And this time specify the path to file instead of downloading, everything will work fine assuming you have `foomatic-db`, `foomatic-db-engine`, `foomatic-db-nonfree`, `foomatic-db-nonfree-ppds` packages are installed. | ||
