Product: HP Notebook - 15-bw078nl
Operating System: Ubuntu LTS
I am installing HPLIP on UBUNTU 22.04 . I have used HPLIP 3.22.xx because older versions are not able to find a qt library .
With HPLIP 3.22.6 and 3.22.10 I am able to install the software but the plugin keeps reinstalling because does not find a python library. I have found a turnaround:
I have installed apparmor utilities and permitted access to the net to plugin.py
sudo apt-get install apparmor-utils
sudo aa-disable /usr/share/hplip/plugin.py
and then I run
hp-plugin
This solves the problem but it is necessary a patch to hplip.
