But you are right the error message isn't sensible and the scanner group doesn't make sense for running hp-toolbox. The reason is that the USB device ownership is set lp.scanner, this is a Debian/ Ubuntu modification. Arthur. Wrt your ink supply Traceback, please file a new bug report, with upstream preferably, as you will see if you try and file a report with hplip 2.8.6. Till, the upstream file ./data/rules/55-hpmud.rules sets the USB device OWNER="root", GROUP="lp", whilst the debian/ubuntu version debian/55-hpmud.rules sets OWNER="lp", GROUP="scanner". This has the effect that everyone trying to use hplip needs to be a member of group scanner to use things such as hp-toolbox, rather than the expected lp group. How would you feel if we reverted 55-hpmud.rules back to the upstream default of OWNER="root", GROUP="lp". Mark PS. I suspect we should open another bug report 483205 is a locale issue.
