HP printer (hplip) on OpenSuSE 15.3

darkduck · 09-07-2021, 06:59 AM

Hello,
I have an HP PSC 2130. It requires hplip, but 15.3 does not have an official RPM for that.
I tried to use the manual installation guide from HP developers' web site, but 15.3 lacks lots of dependencies.
How to install the printer and scanner in such case?
Thanks!

It should be OK with the version for 15.2. Look it up on the software/opensuse software portal.

Its in the OSS Repo, you can install it by

Code:

zypper in hplip

PS I build for me an actual hplip, so do not think, its not there.....

My secondary system is leap 15.3 but I usually use tumbleweed. I've checked my 15.3 after I replied to you. It does have hplip but I see Sauerland beat me to it anyway.
