I can’t install my HP Printer. When I go in "add a printer"in KDE section I get an error message in red .
I checked if I had HPLip installed and it seems to be ok but even with the hp-setup command it doesn’t work , it does not find the printer.
THe printer is an hp, plugged in USB. The printer works fine with other distros.
Any clue ?

Hello,
Download hplip and in a console in single user (NON ROOT) done
hp-setup address of your network printer (example : hp-setup 192.168.1.10)
If you don’t know the address of his printer, it should be listed in the network menus of your printer screen.
Otherwise done
nmap -v -sn --open 192.168.1.0/24
to find her.
The installation is very simple and trivial respecting the whole process.
Bonne installation

Why download? hplip is in the OSS Repo.
Also the printer is collected via USB

I found the solution thanks to the french forum.
