Release Notes

HPLIP 3.9.6 - This release has the following changes:

Significant Changes

The new native CUPS driver (HPCUPS) is now the default printer driver. HPCUPS requires CUPS 1.2 or higher and is a complete replacement for HPIJS. For now HPIJS is still included in the tarball and if necessary can co-exist with HPCUPS. HPCUPS provides new paper sizes for borderless and duplex. This means we now have PPDs with exact printable regions for normal, borderless and duplex paper sizes.
A new utility 'hp-wificonfig' allows you to configure select wifi-capable printers on a wireless network. Once configured, the printer may be installed normally using hp-setup (there is also a way to access hp-wificonfig directly from hp-setup).

Fixed issue in Question #64417 (Added exception handler for case when DBus cannot be used to close hp-systray, for example, if X11 is not running).
Fix for defect (hp-sendfax cannot send more than one file). Issue was caused by fax queue being in PROCESSING state. Fix is to look for that state and wait until the queue becomes IDLE.

Fix for defect (Qt4 sendfax UI doesn't require fax number). Fixed hp-sendfax in both CLI and UI modes to ignore address book entries without fax number.
Fix for defect (Renamed address book entries can cause group deletion). Rename operation was copying the old contents of the entry without changing the self-referential name entry.
Added reportError() to sane.py to fix a user reported issue (LP Question #18354)
When attempting to perform administrative tasks through hp-toolbox, will now prompt for a username and password when required by CUPS.
Added more error checking to device-id reads in hpmud.
Added more robust device communication error checking to hp backend.
Fix for 100% CPU utilization upon logoff/switch user found in SUSE 11.1 x86_64

Fixed defect (Second testpage print fails). Added missing call to close the open device in the button click handler.
Changed the qt default from qt3 to qt4 at configure time.
Added foomatic_rip_hplip field to distros.dat to support configure flag --enable-foomatic-rip-hplip-install.

Fix for defect (Cancel during fax send doesn't cancel). Added missing code in one section of fax state machine where cancel and error aren't detected.
Fixed Qt4 hp-sendfax so that when run from command line another instance isn't started by the system tray and that the user is queried for the fax device.
Fix for defect (No error displayed when fax recipient is offline). Some devcies don't return an error for this so we detect this now and display a "possible causes" error.
Fix for defect (Using Quick Add in hp-sendfax alters existing fax address book entries). Cribbed code from Qt4 UI to disallow using a name in Quick Add that already exists in the FAB.
Fix for defect (Faxing fails on OfficeJet 5110). Faxing disabled for this device.

HPLIP 2.8.12 - This release has the following changes:

Significant Changes

From this release forward, all PPD files will reside in the tarball. Prior to this release, products that required a binary plug-in for support had their PPD's shipped with the plug-in file. This lead to a less than ideal installation experience because the installer would choose an incorrect PPD.
Preview (alpha) release of the Qt4 version of HPLIP. To enable Qt4 in HPLIP 2.8.12, please refer to this KB article: http://hplipopensource.com/node/308
HPLIP device permissions set at hot-plug time are now more restrictive. Only the Console user has access to HPLIP devices. This functionality matches how most distros set device permissions.

Detailed Change Log

HPLIP 2.8.9 - This release has the following changes:

Significant Changes:

Scanning is now supported on the following printers: HP LaserJet m1005, HP LaserJet m1120 MFP, HP LaserJet m1120n MFP, and HP LaserJet m1319f MFP. A binary plugin is required for scanning support.
Improvements in design and consistency in how each commandline program (hp-*) handles -h/--help (USAGE) and parameter parsing.
Simplified and made consistent the way commandline programs (hp-*) check and handle device URI and printer name parameters.
Put in place the necessary infrastructure to support the addition of Qt4 user interfaces in an upcoming release.
Made improvements in how commandline programs (hp-*) handle the configure flags for gui build, scan build, and fax build.
The -b/--bus parameter has been removed from most commandline programs (hp-*). Most programs not require that the printer/device be setup with an appropriate device URI.
hp-makeuri will no longer generate device URIs for unsupported devices.
Concurrent with this release, a re-launch of HPLIP web site, including:
- New Knowledge-Base for enhanced search & delivery of HPLIP software and associated support documentation,
- New location: http://hplipopensource.com (old URL will be re-routed).

Important Note:

The HPLIP tarball in this release contains some code for Qt4 user interfaces, however this code is in a very early stage, is under active development, and is not in any way usable. Please do not submit any defects/bugs against Qt4 code in this release. All installations of HPLIP are currently setup to use Qt3 user interfaces.

Detailed Change Log

Replaced the doc directory with an abbreviated web document. See hplip.sf.net for full online documentation. This made the HPLIP download and footprint a lot smaller.
Redesigned the proprietary plugin support. There is now only one plugin that is valid for each for each HPLIP release. The plugin is a self contained run file that can be installed manually or automatically with hp-setup.
Added ESP Package Manager (EPM) support to the HPLIP Makefile. The EPM list file (hplip.list) supports building rpm, deb and portable binary packages from the tar ball.
As requested by Till Kamppeter, added a new program (dat2drv.py) for building printer xml files that are compatible with the foomatic database. The xml files represent all HP products supported by HPLIP.
Changed the hpijs.drv to support PPDs with multiple products. For example the "Deskjet 5900 series" will have one PPD file called "hp-deskjet_5900_series", and this PPD file supports 4 different products or models (ie: DeskJet 5938, DeskJet 5940, DeskJet 5940xi and DeskJet 5943). Each model is listed inside the PPD with the "Product" attribute.
Fixed defect (Driver Plug-in install fail and a 'plug-in install failed' window pops up both in download pulg-in and use the exisiting plug-in file when setup the hp color laserjet cp1518ni via network with hplip-2.8.6.12. )

There appears to be a CUPS issue with # of copies, borders, page-set, etc options not working properly in CUPS versions 1.3.0-1.3.6. Upgrading to CUPS 1.3.7 appears to fix the issue.

HPLIP 2.8.4 - This release has the following changes:

Significant Changes

1. dbus communication support. All interprocess communication now occurs using the dbus message bus. python-dbus version 0.80 or greater is required.

2. Elimination of all persistent startup daemons. hpssd has been replaced with hp-systray that loads as a user startup item in the system tray in each user's desktop environment. When no HPLIP tools are running (e.g., hp-toolbox), and the user closes or disables hp-systray, there will be no HPLIP processes running whatsoever. Consequently, there is no longer an /etc/init.d/hplip startup script, and no processes need be run at system startup time.

3. PC send fax requires dbus support and a running hp-systray to operate. Only Linux distributions that have python-dbus 0.80 or greater support PC send fax as of this release.

Added Support for the Following New Printers:

HP LaserJet M1120 MFP (LJZjsMono w/plug-in)
HP LaserJet M1120n MFP (LJZjsMono w/plug-in)
