24.04.1 Printing on a HP LaserJet Professional M1132-MFP printer

[Ian Bruntlett]

Hi,

Running Ubuntu 24.04.1.

I hadn't tried to print from this laptop for a very long time. So I tried
printing from LibreOffice Writer and I got an error message - something
about a stopped job.

So I ran, in a terminal window, hp-testpage . It decided to install some
files and asked me for the superuser password - gave it my password as I
have sudo privileges - it installed stuff but didn't print a test page.
Tried printing from LibreOffice and it worked!

HTH,


Ian
