An adventure with an HP printer/scanner and Ubuntu
,----[ Quote ]
| Now smug with the ease with which that had
| worked I started installing the HP driver
| software on a popular proprietary operating
| system so I could use it to configure the
| printerâs WiFi feature (something I assumed
| I couldnât do from within Ubuntu â an
| assumption that turns out to have been
| wrong). Ten minutes later it was still
| finishing off the install process, but
| eventually I did get the printer hooked up
| to our wireless network.
|
| Back to the Lucid machine, I told it to add
| a new printer, it immediately saw the HP
| announcing itself on the network and let me
| quickly add that and I could print over
| wifi. Pretty nifty stuff.
|
| [...]
|
| So there we have it, out of the box I was
| up and running within 10 seconds of
| plugging the device in, and if Iâd known to
| just install hp-toolbox I would have had
| everything running wirelessly a few minutes
| later.
