hplip ... anything about this ?

DirtyAngel

Apparently current update of hplip has disabled hplip like recent two updates before this ?
However hplip was working pretty good with LibreOffice before current update.
It seems to be the same reason like it was last time.
Now I try re-install with :

sudo eopkg it --reinstall hplip

This did not help - after gnome-settings-printer announces "printing is running" - then comes
announcement shortly after with "printing has been stopped". No further reason at all.

DirtyAngel this info is exactly one week old. https://discuss.getsol.us/d/7469-bug-in-hplip-attributeerror-scanthread-object-has-no-attribute-isalive
related?
Did not see anything timely about about this dev tracker but you never know. Chase footnotes from changelog they may lead you somewhere.
As a forum reader I cannot answer your question directly why it's not working for you. Someone possibly knows.

DirtyAngel reinstall the plugin by running hp-plugin on terminal

you've got to reinstall the binary plugin every time hplip updates. sucks, I know

Thank you !! I thought already, it might have been again attack against Python packages of HP ... like it was before.

This thread is solved - it was apparently a different bug ?
HP has updated its "environment" for hplip to PythonQT5 ?
Now printer runs simply after - without sudo in terminal :

hp-plugin

when successful then

hp-setup (only herewith printer is added !!)

And printer should work then !
