Bug#949578: hplip: Missing support for several printer models since 3.19.1
Package: hplip
Version: 3.19.12+dfsg0-3
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
I have a HP LaserJet Professional P1102w that it is no more recognized by
hp-setup, hpcups.drv and models.dat entries were removed. There are still
entries for "p_1102w", but the printer reports itself as "p1102w".
Basically I'm affected by this upstream bug, reported by the Fedora folks:
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/hplip/+bug/1843592>
There you can find a better description of the bug, links to the Fedora bugs
and a patch to solve the problem.
That bug was reported on 2019-09-11 and after 4 months is stil "Undecided" and
"Unassigned", with 0 reply. Completely ignored.
Can you apply the same patch used by Fedora, until the upstream bug gets
acknowledged and resolved?
I have seen <https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=945109>
There seems to be more error in the hpcups.drv and models.dat files than reported...
Thank you.
