"Unresolved" HP Deskjet 2742, works online, not by USB printer cord, wont scan

[firenice03]

Depending on the "newness" production date it may take a moment for Linux to build in... It works by default, could be that its "using" a generic/standard/prior driver that works for a similar or older model version.


Also, and I try to follow the same.... having a TimeShift backup of the working system in a state to revert to back should what we "try" go horribly wrong OR if what was tried just didn't work... Just because it didnt work doesn't necessarily mean the system is still as it was. say for example compiling for python2 and 3 is installed...
Its east to revert versus trying to undo what was hoped would work.


Forsake of this thread; the other is https://www.linuxliteos.com/forums/print...ns-please/


Another along the same lines: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1353398/...in-ubuntu2


I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss as "unresolved" or abandoned as from the sounds of things HP is updating the plugin??
Further research may also find that the kernel version may be at play... Food for thought.


Perhaps this as an informational thread vs. support - a what works/what didn't ???


I.E.
LL Version
Kernel
HPLIP version


Print via Wifi / Ether / USB
Scan the same (version and via)


Online/Offline - I assume you're meaning will the device wake when a job is sent to it?
