Installing HP Laser Jet Pro MFP M130nw












1














I am trying to install an HP Laser Jet Pro multifunction printer (MFP M130nw) on Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS, but no success. After connecting it to my PC, there's no printing and scanning. Launching a print from a document, my screen displays a message 'the print has been stopped' while the printer is ON.
Settings>Devices>Printer says the printer is 'Ready'. The printer screen also shows 'Ready'. The Software Center indicates HPLIP is already installed. What could still be missing?
OS type - 64-bit, GNOME 3.28.2, my ease with the Terminal- almost like a beginner.

          Your printer is supported with HPLIP version, shipped with Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS. You do not need to install latest binary HPLIP and/or proprietary/binary plugin.



          So you need to connect printer to the same network and/or USB then simply install HPLIP with



          sudo apt-get install hplip-gui


          then launch the HP setup



          hp-setup


          and follow wizard on screen.
