hp-plugin fails
hi,
when I run hp-plugin on my laptop (debian/stretch), it says
driver plugin for HPLIP 3.16.11 already installed ...
(the hplip package version is 3.16.11)
if I do that on my desktop (debian/buster), I get:
error: Unable to open /data/home/frenkiel/.hplip/hp-plugin.lock lock file.
(the hplip package version is 3.18.12)
sudo hp-plugin gives:
warning: It is not recommended to run 'hp-plugin' in a root mode.
googling didn't give me any useful information...
I tried also:
hp-diagnose_plugin
which gives: failed to install plugin
sudo hp-diagnose_plugin ==>
warning: It is not recommended to run 'hp-plugin' in a root mode.
Checking for network connection...
Downloading plug-in from:
Downloading plug-in: [\
but the download runs forever, with 0% downloaded
Can anybody suggest a fix?
best regards,
