[Solved]HP Deskjet 2131--How to run it in Puppy Xenial64?
Posted: Mon 22 Jan 2018, 23:34
I have posted this because I have not found a way to get this very cheap printer /scanner (AUD $19) to run properly.
I have been very successful with its competitor Cannon MG2560 (AUD $15) which runs without additions .
The program available from HP is "HPLIP.bin" and trying to compile this is unsucessful as there are unsatisfied dependancies and a chase your tail scenario.
See here for output http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=112472
I'm hoping someone with more knowledge of printers than me can help sort it out and make this dirt cheap but excellent printer useable for the Puppy community.
