Hi Niki don't you need a hplip addon/plugin, which you can fetch from http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/install/install/index.html There, with the wizard, you get a file hplip-3.x.x.run which you download and run using bash hplip-3.x.x.run This will install the addon/plugin. suomi On 11/11/2016 08:49 AM, Nicolas Kovacs wrote: > Hi, > > I just installed a CentOS 7 + KDE desktop in my office's network.
