Note: hp-check can be run in three modes:
1. Compile-time check mode (-c or --compile): Use this mode before compiling the HPLIP supplied tarball (.tar.gz or .run) to determine if the proper
dependencies are installed to successfully compile HPLIP.
2. Run-time check mode (-r or --run): Use this mode to determine if a distro supplied package (.deb, .rpm, etc) or an already built HPLIP supplied
tarball has the proper dependencies installed to successfully run.
3. Both compile- and run-time check mode (-b or --both) (Default): This mode will check both of the above cases (both compile- and run-time
dependencies).

Why doesn't Photosmart 6510 connect wifi with the hplip 3.12.2 ? It is possible with a future version of hplip ?

Hi,

WiFi configuration through USB doesnt work with this device on Linux. This is a bug with our HPLIP. And we are working on that. But if you already know the IP Address of the device, you can try the following the device using following steps.

1. Run "hp-setup <IP Address>" from the terminal.
2. Continue to configure device via WiFi.

If you dont know the IP Address of the device, following steps are work around to configure through Wifi. Download the Windows full solution driver for this device on any Windows machine.

1. Double click on the exe to extract and install.
2. Select "Configure the device through Wifi first..." and continue.
3. Select "Advanced" option to select the wireless network manually.
4. Finally print a test page. An IP address will be printed.
5. Now try to configure the device in Linux using "hp-setup <IP address>".

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Thanks and Regards,
Srikanth Lokare

 Hi,

Hi,

Are you able to ping to the IP Address of the printer? If not make sure that, the IP Address of the printer is not changed by printing the configuration page.

After that follow the below steps.
1. Delete all the existing print queues using "system-config-printer" from the terminal.
2. Re-configure the device using "hp-setup <IP Address>" from the terminal.

Let us know if the problem still persists.

Thanks and Regards,
Srikanth Lokare

Mon problème est résolu : mauvaise configuration du réseau, j'ai pris soin de bien séparer les adresses IP des appareils en filaires et des appareils en wifi.

Now, I can use my Photosmart from my computer with wifi : it was a conflict in the Netgear DG834 between IP adress of wifi device and IP adress wire device. Yet, the IP slot of wire device are from 192.168.0.1 to 192.169.0.19 ande the IP slot of wifi device are from 192.168.0.20 ti 192.168.0.30. I can print from the wireless Linux computer to the wireless Photosmart, from wire Linux computer to the wirelesse Photosmart, I can use LinPhone from my smartphone to my wireless Linux computer. I see (ping) each Linux computer (wire or wireless) from each Linux computer (wire or wireless).
The hplip version is 3.12.2
