[SPAM] help-HPLP

[Alan Pater]

I tried that to see what happened on this Ubuntu system:

        Dapper:~$ hp-toolbox
         [ERROR]: PyQt not installed. GUI not available. Exiting.

OK, so then I tried:

        Dapper:~$ apt-cache search pyqt

Of the results, I suspect the python-qt3 package is needed:

        Dapper:~$ sudo aptitude install python-qt3

I enter my password, answer Y to confirm, and 10MB of packages get
installed. It may be a lot more on your Xubuntu system.

HPLIP Toolbox then runs. I don't have an HP device setup, so it tells
me to go to http://localhost:631 (The CUPS Printer setup page) to
configure the printer.

You have already configured the printer through http://localhost:631 right?
