      The newest version is hplip 3.20.3 and it doesn’t work either…

      i have tried 3.20.6 with mint 20 and its not working. Some dependencies are not compatible so its not able to detect printer. I checked with lsusb and printer was listed there.

      According to HP’s most recent “release notes”, Linux Mint 20 is not supported until hplip 3.20.9 which is fairly recent (within the last 2 or 3 weeks perhaps).

      Installing a newer version of hplip that is NOT listed in Synaptic Package Manager has cause me issues in the past, so I will try installing 3.20.9 on a bootable thumb drive as a test – to see if there are multiple dependency errors.
