Xandros
Note: The following steps may effect the stability of your Xandros system. You may want to refer to your Xandros documentation and/or other resources on the possible effects.
Note: Using the Xandros Network remove the package xandros-hpjos. If you do not remove this package then HPLIP will not function correctly.
You will need to add the debian repositories to the Xandros '/etc/apt/sources.list' file so that you can install the correct dependencies for HPLIP.
Open the /etc/apt/sources.list file as root and add this section:
# Standard Debian package sources
deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ stable main non-free contrib
deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ stable main non-free contrib
deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US stable/non-US main contrib non-free
deb-src http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US stable/non-US main contrib non-free
Then run:
su
apt-get update
Finally run:
apt-get install libcupsys2 libcupsys2-dev build-essential python-dev python gs-esp libusb-dev lsb sane xsane sane-utils python-reportlab python-qt3 libsnmp5-dev openssl libjpeg62-dev
At the end of the HPLIP install process you will run hp-setup to configure your printer. Because of Xandros security configurations you may need to add your user to the '/etc/sudoers' file to run hp-setup.
Add this to your /etc/sudoers file:
<username> ALL=(ALL) ALL
Where <username> is your Xandros user. (You can run 'whoami' to get your username.)
