Linux information

HPLIP (Hewlett-Packard Linux Imaging & Printing) is an HP-developed solution for printing, scanning,
and faxing with HP inkjet and laser based printers in Linux, distributed under the MIT, BSD, and GPL
license.
HPLIP supports most HP printers and MFPs sold over the past 20 years. More specifically, HPLIP
currently supports Deskjet, Officejet, Photosmart, PSC, Business Inkjet and LaserJet products. For a
complete list of supported devices, go to
combined.html.
HPLIP consists of several distinct but interconnected pieces of software and is available as either a
single compressed (tar) file or as a single auto-install (run) file. As installed, HPLIP's primary
elements are device drivers, setup and installation utilities, and a device manager (aka: a toolbox)
which provides access to maintenance tools, supplies levels, and status information.
HPLIP works succesfully across a wide breadth of Linux distributions (distros). It does not work on
Windows or other non-Linux operating systems. The latest HPLIP release is tested with the following
major distros:
●
Ubuntu
●
openSUSE
●
SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop (SLED)
●
Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)
●
Fedora
