Could you please attach the output of this command?:

su -c 'journalctl _COMM=cupsd'

If it gives no output, please attach /var/log/cups/error_log.

Comment 3 Tim Waugh 2014-11-05 11:18:33 UTC
Sorry, make that:

su -c 'journalctl _COMM=cupsd --since=2014-11-04'

This is a problem with the proprietary plug-in. Nothing we can do here.

Comment 6 Mikhail 2014-11-06 19:54:41 UTC
Too bad.

1. Who can help with hplip?

2. Can we do without it?

Comment 7 Tim Waugh 2014-11-07 09:22:29 UTC
With proprietary software, you can no choice but to contact the vendor (HP) directly and hope they will help.

There is a table on the HPLIP site showing which printer models require proprietary plugins and which do not:

Comment 8 Mikhail 2014-12-22 07:45:00 UTC
Tim, can you help me with contacts?

Comment 9 Tim Waugh 2014-12-22 09:12:29 UTC
You could try here:

or contact HP's customer service using the link on their web page.

Comment 10 Mikhail 2014-12-22 10:48:18 UTC
Tim, thanks.

I found reporting instruction there, but that Fedora 21 is unsupported is shock for me :(

Tim, hp-doctor reconfigure printer and print his test page. But Fedora still couldn't print and print his test page (scanning works).

Please look at hp-doctor.log

Comment 14 Mikhail 2014-12-23 10:03:14 UTC
Again run hp-doctor and after second reconfigure printer begin print blank page :(

Very strange because test page now printed. But every PDF printed as blank page.

It shouldn't be. You're running a diagnosis tool that was released in October and which says:

> error: This distro (i.e fedora  21) is either deprecated or not yet
> supported.

.. that Fedora 21 might not yet be supported. HPLIP in October didn't know about Fedora 21 which was released in December. :-)

The hp-doctor tool is very limited and not particularly useful. In fact, it's pretty unhelpful because it gives wrong information: for instance, the development packages are not required at runtime, so this sort of thing is rubbish:

error: 'dbus-devel' package is missing/incompatible

Also, is CUPS really not running?:

error: 'cups' package is missing or 'cups' service is not running.

I'll bet it is running, as the printer is actually doing something.

etc.

So, really, hp-doctor is not a useful tool for trying to find the problem.

Now, the actual problem is this:

[Job 11] Error: This module is designed to work with HP Printers only

from comment #5. That string comes from the proprietary plug-in. Your printer cannot function with HPLIP without that proprietary plug-in:
http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/models/laserjet/hp_laserjet_professional_m1132_mfp.html

so until that's fixed, there's nothing else we can do here, sorry.

Comment 18 Mikhail 2015-01-21 09:21:03 UTC
Good news 19 Jan computer receive update of the system. After reboot I see strange messages in dmesg log. As if appeared CD-ROM but it is not working. /dev/sr0 Decided to find out what was going on there was it the printer began to be determined.
After power off/on printer I see that system began to automatically install the driver, which has not previously been seen.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0nwzlfiB4aQbTF5QVNzR0xrcTA/view?usp=sharing

And after it printer begin prints standard test page and print PDF documents.
Me so it seems but now it works without proprietary module?
I am happy :)

The only thing that confuses is Fail message when trying to install hpijs (you can see it on my screencast). I thought message must be different. For example "Ok. Already installed." or "Ok. Installation no needed."
Message about Failure is not good this :)

The next question how share this printer over network?

That's bug #1159376.

(In reply to Mikhail from comment #20)
> The next question how share this printer over network?

Use system-config-printer ("Print Settings") to set that up. You'll need to enable sharing in Server Settings and mark each printer you want to share as 'Shared' in its properties. You'll also need to alter the firewall to allow that system to operate as an IPP server. If you have trouble with this, please follow up on the 'users' mailing list:
  https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users

Big thanks!

Do you have plans to migrate this functionality in gnome-control-center?

Comment 23 Tim Waugh 2015-01-21 11:22:28 UTC
I don't maintain gnome-control-center. I'm not sure what the GNOME plans are othe than:
https://wiki.gnome.org/Design/SystemSettings/Sharing

...which lists printer sharing as a secondary goal for the Sharing panel.
