Known Issues in 3.15.4

Applies To
Printer(s): 
HP Color LaserJet Enterprise flow M880 Multifunction Printer series HP Color LaserJet Enterprise M855 Printer series HP LaserJet Enterprise M806 Printer Series HP LaserJet Enterprise flow M830 Mutlifunction Printer Series
Solution: 

  Some of the  features like Hole-Punch depend upon the paper size orientation. Due to some external limitations, Linux driver cannot apply Orientation constraints in the Print Dialogs and therefore following invalid combinations will also be selectable in print dialogs. Printer will ignore these combinations, if selected by users.

1. Portrait orientation and 4 hole punch Top

2. Landscape orientation and 4 hole punch Left

3. Landscape orientation and 4 hole punch Right

Known Issues in 3.15.2

Notes: 

1.Please restart cups service, if you see the below warning message during HPLIP installation.
'An error occured running 'su -c "service cups restart"' '

2. On Fedora 21 'hp-logcapture' will not capture error_log as location of the file is changed. The work around is to modify /etc/cups/cups-files.conf file to change the ErrorLog line to /var/log/cups/error_log
