I’ve adapted the AUR PKGBUILD for hplip-plugin to install the hplip binary plugins on Clear Linux. This is required for a number of HP’s printers - especially the LaserJet series.
See https://developers.hp.com/hp-linux-imaging-and-printing/binary_plugin.html for more information.
You can see/get the script here: scripts/install_hplip_plugin.sh at master · pceiley/scripts · GitHub

I see:
install -m644 plugin.spec "/usr/share/hplip/"
install -m644 hp_laserjet_*.fw.gz "/usr/share/hplip/data/firmware/"
install -m755 fax_marvell-"$_arch".so "/usr/share/hplip/fax/plugins/"
install -m755 hbpl1-"$_arch".so "/usr/share/hplip/prnt/plugins/"
install -m755 lj-"$_arch".so "/usr/share/hplip/prnt/plugins/"
install -m755 bb_*-"$_arch".so "/usr/share/hplip/scan/plugins/"
We should really get this stuff to go into /usr/local
and /etc/
instead.

Agreed. But I believe hplip relies on the files being at these locations…

The hplip core is open source, though, so, it can be modified to scan other folders for plugins.
cant scan. any idea on fix? using HP MFP 26a
