The printer does not work

Hello. Please help. The printer does not work on Zorin OS. My work depends only on the printer. Therefore, it is very important that he earns. Printer model "HP LaserJet Pro M102a". When the search for the Dräveira is automatic, it finds the driver for the "HP LaserJet M501" model. I click on the print, and writes what prints, and then is completed. The printer flashes, but does not print. Found a common driver for all printers, for Linux OS, the name "HPLIP". I put it through the console, but the installation does not reach the end. All is smooth, the printer does not work. Is there any possibility, to make the printer work? Can I put the driver, from Windows OS?

Hi, did you install from Synaptic?:



or from here?:

https://developers.hp.com/hp-linux-imaging-and-printing

Notice the current HPLIP from official source is newer than the one showing up in the Ubuntu/Zorin repositories.

Have you installed the other elements too? (see screenshot above).

You may also need to install the 'gui' package and also 'ifhp' a package specifically for HP Laser printers also:



Keep us posted!

if you are still struggling have a try with CUPS (Common UNIX Printing System)
open Terminal

Code:

sudo apt install cups

the add+ on printers menu will have plenty types to select from. try and error is not a bad thing.

keep fingers crossed
