Here's the deal! I've upgraded from buster to bullseye with no real issues,
overall, with the exception of only one app so far. hplip didn't run after the
upgrade and I've uninstalled and re-installed hplip from the bullseye repo and
it does install but doesn't work. No warnings on the install but it won't run
from the gui and launching from a terminal gives numerous errors. I won't post
those yet but a couple questions to start:
Has anyone installed hplip successfully and had it run properly? and
Other than a normal install, what did you do to get it up and running?
On my system, CUPS printing works perfectly and I also have python 2 and 3
installed but configured to use python3, 3.9 to be exact. It appears that hplip
is centered around python2.x and it's possible this is the problem.
Any info would be appreciated. I only use hplip to clean the printheads and to
check the ink levels.
thanks,
Tony
