[Bug 329898] Re: The HP 1018 printer not work out of the box if used non-US locale

 

Last time I tried to make 1018 work I should completely remove HPLIP.
Otherwise it seems it can't load firmware to printer after reboot. As a
result I can use only printers that works without HPLIP. So no printer
that works only with HPLIP I can use as a second when 1018 already
installed and working. This is very pity. Why there are still no actions
with this issue ?

** Changed in: hplip
       Status: New => Confirmed

Bug description:
  This bug is continuation of the bug 217215. To avoid any problems
  related to attempts describe I decided to start with 'clean account'.
  (and created the new bug entry)

  Clean account means:
  1) Remove hplip*, foo2zjs, footomatic package.
  2) Remove any further files related to hp1018
  find /usr/share -name "*1018*"                            
  ./foo2zjs/firmware/sihp1018.img
  ./ppd/hpijs/HP/hp_laserjet_1018-hpijs.ppd
  3) Remove orphaned /usr/share/hplip directory

  After restarting the printer a system message appear pointing that new hardware had been installed and suggesting that hpijs package support the HP 1018 printer. 
  I:
  - installed hpijs with depends
  - Ran Printer configure tool: a driver for HP 1018 hadn't been found 
  - so I chose suggested HP 1015 driver
  - printer didn't react for send packages.
