Package: hplip-gui Version: 3.13.11-2 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
I installed the hplip-gui package on a fresh Debian Jessie install to make available the HP Toolbox for easy HP printers installation and management (in particular networked multi-function printing/scanning). This installation has the root account disabled by specifying an empty password during the initial installation. After launching hp-toolbox from command line (it can't be found from the Activites Overview, reported as Bug #733947), I proceed to networked printer detection which goes on as expected until reaching the Setup Device dialog and confirming the printer addition by clicking on the Add Printer button. At that point a dialog appears: You do not have permission to add a printer. You need authentication. My standard credentials don't work as expected, an error dialog indicates: Could not connect to CUPS Server due to insufficient privileges. Try with a valid user. I would expect HP Toolbox to be usable even when the root account is disabled, as the initial user in a vanilla install has admin privileges. As a workaround, a networked printer can be installed using the standard printing configuration utility, but network scanning and other advanced features won't be configured. This effectively makes it harder to properly configure such networked multifunction devices. I believe the same bug has been reported in Ubuntu: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hplip/+bug/1209246 -- Package-specific info: Saving output in log file: /home/magicfab/hp-check.log HP Linux Imaging and Printing System (ver. 3.13.11) Dependency/Version Check Utility ver. 15.1 Copyright (c) 2001-13 Hewlett-Packard Development Company, LP This software comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY. This is free software, and you are welcome to distribute it under certain conditions. See COPYING file for more details. Note: hp-check can be run in three modes: 1. Compile-time check mode (-c or --compile): Use this mode before compiling the HPLIP supplied tarball (.tar.gz or .run) to determine if the proper dependencies are installed to successfully compile HPLIP. 2. Run-time check mode (-r or --run): Use this mode to determine if a distro supplied package (.deb, .rpm, etc) or an already built HPLIP supplied tarball has the proper dependencies installed to successfully run. 3. Both compile- and run-time check mode (-b or --both) (Default): This mode will check both of the above cases (both compile- and run-time dependencies). Check types: a. EXTERNALDEP - External Dependencies b. GENERALDEP - General Dependencies (required both at compile and run time) c. COMPILEDEP - Compile time Dependencies d.
