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

 

Another one example. Today I've been suffered trying to install LaserJet
1000 series on Xubuntu 14.04. The same problem. Only deleting hplip from
system makes possible printer to get it's firmware loaded. Also I should
download its firmware by 'getweb 1000 command'. So there are definitely
some kind of conflict between Foomatic and HPLIP causes printer firmware
not to load.

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.
