HPLIP
Hi, I've been trying (again) to configure an HP LJ1600 printer using
HPLIP. A plugin is required for this printer. When I run hp-plugin,
it fails with the following output:
HP Linux Imaging and Printing System (ver. 3.9.4b)
Plugin Installer ver. 3.0

Does anyone have an idea how I can go about fixing this?
