screenshot of hp-setup

I have a HP LaserJet P1006 printer, after installing print/hplip and print/hplip-plugin (both version 3.17.7), reboot FreeBSD 11.1, run hp-setup, unfortunately, there is no PPD for laserjet_p1006.

=====
error: No PPD found for model laserjet_p1006 using old algorithm.
error: No appropriate print PPD file found for model hp_laserjet_p1006
=====


I find no PPD for laserjet_p1006 in /usr/local/share/ppd/HP/ , but a hp_laserjet_p1006.fw.gz in /usr/ports/print/hplip-plugin/wowrk/ .


BTW, the version of hplip installed by pkg is 3.17.4, unmatched with hplip-plugin 3.17.7.

The installed version of hplip by pkg is 3.17.7 with latest and 3.17.4 with quarterly. Maybe all versions of hplip need to be merged-quarterly to coincide with ports.

Hi bsdman,

If you install hplip from pkg (which uses the quarterly ports branch by default), then you should install hplip-plugin from the quarterly ports branch also.

Alternatively, you can build both hplip and hplip-plugin from the head ports branch.

Can you please change your setup to use the same version of hplip and hplip-plugin and let me know if you still have the problem?

Regards,
Ben

Hi Ben,

The only problems is that you don't have‎ a package of hplip-plugin due to licence terms.
Maybe hplip must always merged in quarterly.

Regards.

This was fixed with the recent update to hplip 3.17.11 in the ports head branch via commit r457127. Given that the 2018Q1 ports tree will branched in a few days, no need to MFH.

(the share/ppd/HP/hp-laserjet_p1006.ppd.gz file is now installed by the print/hplip port).
Comment 7 bsdman 2018-01-15 13:39:07 UTC 
Updated to hplip 3.17.11 and hplip-plugin 3.17.11, also enabled Linux Binary Compatibility (emulators/linux_base-c6).

Now my HP LaserJet P1006 printer works well with FreeBSD 11.1, although HP Device Manager is not very stable.

Thank you very much, Ben.
