error: hp-setup requires GUI support (try running with --qt3). Also, try using interactive (-i) mode.I ran "hp-check -t", it reported

You may suggest me to run hp-setup in an text-mode by "hp-setup -i". I have gone through that without any error message. Somehow, hplip still couldn't communicate with the printer. That's why I try to set up the printer in a graphic mode.
I just don't know how to setup the GUI mode for hplip. I have spent 2 whole days. Any useful help is appreciated.

Re: [Solved] HPLIP unable to communicate HP printer Officejet 6500 E710A-F
Have you tried installing python2-qt, python2-gobject2, python-pyqt4 and pyqt?

Re: [Solved] HPLIP unable to communicate HP printer Officejet 6500 E710A-F
This is very weird, how long ago have you ran "pacman -Syu"?
Anyways, download the package from https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extr … /download/ (if you're using i686) and try to install it using "pacman -U /path/to/package"

Re: [Solved] HPLIP unable to communicate HP printer Officejet 6500 E710A-F
Thank you, ernetas. Here come both good and bad news.
Good news:
I set up my Archlinux system for the first time on 5/19 this year. The last time I ran "pacman -Syu" was 6/9. After pacman -Syu, I could install "python-pyqt4" by "pacman -S python-pyqt4" without any error.
Bad news:
Running hp-setup as root still gave out error message

Re: [Solved] HPLIP unable to communicate HP printer Officejet 6500 E710A-F
Why do you want it so badly? It's just a setup, you can try using interactive mode for that. What does hp-check -t say now?

Re: [Solved] HPLIP unable to communicate HP printer Officejet 6500 E710A-F
I want it because it may provide an additional opportunity to successfully set up the network printer.
Using "hp-setup -i" could find the printer and go through the process without fatal errors. But it failed to communicate with the printer when I issued "print test page" in CUPS. So I want to setup the network parameter for the printer in the graphical mode, which I have done successfully in another laptop of mine running LMDE. Unfortunately, archlinux isn't in the support list of HPLIP.
After installing "python-pyqt4" as you suggested, "hp-check -t" showed

Re: [Solved] HPLIP unable to communicate HP printer Officejet 6500 E710A-F
Have you looked at all the optional dependencies of hplip?
Also, the "Unable to communicate with device" error is referenced in the wiki and suggestion is to add user in groups lp and sys.

Re: [Solved] HPLIP unable to communicate HP printer Officejet 6500 E710A-F
two simple question for clarity. What is the status of cups service? Did it see your printer on web interface?

Re: [Solved] HPLIP unable to communicate HP printer Officejet 6500 E710A-F
To kgas:
1)
printer queue status in CUPS before printing test page: (Idle, Accepting Jobs, Not Shared)
printer queue status in CUPS after issuing "print test page": (Processing, Accepting Jobs, Not Shared) --> (Paused, Accepting Jobs, Not Shared) filter failed
2)
Yes, I saw my printer and fax queue on the CUPS web interface (When the CUPS asked for username/password, I gave it the root one to confer highest access right)

Re: [Solved] HPLIP unable to communicate HP printer Officejet 6500 E710A-F
To valr:
Thanks for your suggestion of looking at the "optional dependencies of hplip". I installed "python2-pyqt" accordingly to be able to run "hp-setup" in a graphical mode.
Using the "auto search" function, it finds my printer. When I print the test page, it reported "Unable to communicate with device"
I specified the IP address of my printer instead. Then, the test page is successfully printed!!!
The problem is solved on my side. But the built-in "auto-search" function seems to have a bug. The address derived from "auto-search" just cannot be utilized to locate the target printer by itself.
Lastly, the group "lp" and "sys" issue doesn't exist in my case since I run as root. I have confirmed that the root has been added to both "lp" and "sys" group much earlier... ...

Why does the title have a limitation in the number of characters ... about 70+ ?
To put [Solved], I change the title.
