Oh, and what exactly is a "systemtray?" All of a sudden, for the past year or so, the HP p1102w Pro has been eliciting an HPLIP error message saying that there is no "systemtray" and so it was stopping. I have no idea what a systemtray is. I obviously didn't lose a systemtray that was once there--all is like new in my old printer. Windows' driver makes no complaint about a systemtray but HPLIP in Linux is obsessed by it and the danger caused by it being missing. I don't want to be forced to go into Windows in order to print something. I have used Linux since 1997 and I don't want to have Linux suddenly fail to support my perfectly fine older HP printer that has been working fine under Linux for years.
Because I'm annoyed at how much effort I've put into making this perfectly fine printer work with the latest versions of Linux and HPLIP I've considered buying another inexpensive printer but I'm not sure how well that will work out in Linux. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1697958 Title: HPLIP cannot detect printers in your network To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hplip/+bug/1697958/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
