Trying to Troubleshoot HPLIP

Posts: 3

I bought an HP 3830 printer not too long ago, and now I'm trying to set up the scanning feature. I downloaded HPLIP off of Synaptic Package Manager, but every time I go to the menu and click on the icon to bring it up, it doesn't do anything. I have the most up to date version of Debian. What are your suggestions?

    Did you download the firmware (driver) from HP?

    HP doesn't offer any drivers on their website. Instead, they forward me to SourceForge, and whenever I download and try to install the driver from there, I get an error message saying it didn't install correctly (which is probably due to some downloads having malware bundles, according to Wikipedia).

  • I have faced this troubleshooting errors repeatedly in my Printer as well. Then I was checking from various site and finally found this blog called Fix Epson Printer Error code 0xe5 which guides me to resolve easily.
