Your Laserjet m1132 requires a special plugin. In my experience, this requires a full Linux like Ubuntu.
However, there is a foo2xxx driver PET that supports the m1120 that may work for you. Download it from here. Click the small grey DOWNLOAD button on the LEFT.

It would help a lot if you stated what you have tried.I try many different ways
Hi all...
HPLIP 3.10.4 would also support this printer (.PET for 3.10.5 can be found here,) and the plugin that I'm guessing rcrsn51 was referring to can be installed using the instructions here.
@nimrod: Welcome to the forum. If rcrsn51's suggestion above doesn't work, what I mentioned above might but I can't guarantee it.

Try installing the QT4 .pet here. HPLIP should also allow you to scan.

That's good. You now have a working printer and only needed to install one package.nimrod wrote:I Also try to install the Foo2XXX and in the wizard I selecte de m1120 foo2xx and the test page was printing.
However, the chances of getting your Laserjet MFP scanner to work using HPLIP drivers are ZERO. We have looked at these units before and they will not work in Puppy. You need a full Linux like Ubuntu where all the packages match.
There is a driver program called Vuescan that supports your scanner.
You should now do a clean install of Wolx to get rid of the HP stuff. Install the foo2xxx PET again.
Hi rcrsn51...rcrsn51 wrote:There is a driver program called Vuescan that supports your scanner.
The page here mentions that there is no driver for Linux. Is that just referring to HP's driver download site or to Vuescan?
What makes HPLIP not an option, in this case? I figured there should have been some way to get it to see the Q4 files.

I don't know. But nimrod can find out easily by installing the demo version.ardvark wrote:The page here mentions that there is no driver for Linux. Is that just referring to HP's driver download site or to Vuescan?
See the discussion with neversaynever here. Note that he got his Laserjet MFP to work with Vuescan.What makes HPLIP not an option, in this case? I figured there should have been some way to get it to see the Q4 files
After much trial and error, the major problem appeared to be Python, which is required by the scanner plugin. You need to find a compatible Python package, then compile the full HPLIP in your specific Puppy against that specific package.
True. Another option the OP has is to try a lightweight version (although not as light as Puppy,) of Ubuntu called Lubuntu. I can confirm HPLIP works just fine on this distribution, either for scanning or for printing.rcrsn51 wrote:But nimrod can find out easily by installing the demo version.
@nimrod: If you try the option I mentioned above, be sure to follow the same instructions I posted earlier concerning the minimum version of HPLIP required and the needed plugin. To make it easier, you can see if 3.10.4 is listed in Synaptic, Lubuntu's package manager. If not, you can just as easily install the latest version starting here.

Ok, send an e-mail to the owner of the software. I've dealt with him in the past and he was pretty helpful to me when I tried to get an HP scanner working. But that may be because I purchased a license for the software to unlock some features.nimrod wrote:Nop nothing happen when a run vue scan. No scanner Insatlled !
Let us know how it goes...
