I used to use foo2zjs happily many a year ago. But then it vanished from portage and I never got it working again. > I looked and it looks like that won't help you.

What I found out is that the plugin hplip downloads for my laserjet 1000 is a self-extracting archive running on python2, but it does not state a python version. So if your system python is set to v3, the plugin intall will fail with only an =E2=80=9CI failed=E2=80=9D message. Once I switched = to python 2, it ran through. *shrug* A few days ago I couldn=E2=80=99t get my printer to print more than one pag= e in a go. It just stops after the first page. Luckily, I have a virtual Ubuntu which I originally set up just out of curiosity, but now acts as my printing client, because it just works=E2=84=A2. If I find the time, I will go through the tips of this thread myself. PS.: The printer is from 2004, and only now the toner, which is the one I bought with the printer =E2=80=93 is getting weaker. --=20 Gru=C3=9F | Greetings | Qapla=E2=80=99 Please do not share anything from, with or about me on any social network.
