[Bug 1530656] Re: printing will fail with python3.5 set as default

 

If we change the softlink to point to another python version, we need to reinstall hplip. Did you do that?
Try resinstalling HPLIP and check if things work.

Title:
  printing will fail with python3.5 set as default

Status in HPLIP:
  New
Status in hplip package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Setting Python 3.5 as the default for python3 breaks printing over
  HPlib.

  Steps to reproduce:

  sudo -s
  cd /usr/bin
  rm python3
  ln -s python3.5 python3

  ...

  print something using a hplip enabled printer -> printer stopped

  rm python3
  ln -s python3.4 python3 # this was the default setting after installation

  ...

  printing resumes

  I also observed a crash in the HPLip libraries which indicated the
  cause being in the hplip package. (this was not reproducable though)
