Arch Linux
Dear friends,
I have an HP Photosmart 5520 printer which used to work, but then it didn’t anymore and I tried to figure out why and how to make it work again.
The printer works well from 3 Android Smartphones over WIFI.
The printer works over a browser entering 192.168.1.170 and successfully sending test page.
The printer works over an old Kubuntu version on the same computer sending a test page.
So I assume the printer itsself is intact and the cable is intact too.
The printer is directly connected with a USB cable to the computers USB port, no hub. But tested over a different USB port and over a hub, the problem stays the same.
I reinstalled the cups and hplip packets without success.
I can add the printer over the cups web interface without errors, but it’ll stuck, not sending the test page.
I can add the printer over KDE system settings, but it’ll not print, stuck at sending.
If I add the printer over the hplip interface including the hook «send test page to printer», it’ll give this error
Device error: Unknown/invalid device-uri field (4).
If I add the printer over the hplip interface without the hook «send test page to printer», it’ll jump back to page 1 «no installed HP devices found».
If I use hp-setup over console, it’ll give no error, but just say done, but no printer was added.

I tried a lot of things to make this work and I’m out of ideas now, if you can see the problem or can help tp find out, please reply.
