Rocky 9 Linux HP All-in-One Printer Installation and Setup

Introduction

Printing and scanning with an all-in-one HP printer is possible on linux thanks to HPLIP.

This guide was tested with an HP Deskjet 2700 series.

See All Supported Printers to see if the HPLIP package supports your printer.

Download and Install HPLIP

HPLIP is third-party software by HP that contains necessary printer drivers. Install the 3 packages below for full support with a graphical user interface.

sudo dnf install hplip-common.x86_64 hplip-libs.x86_64 hplip-gui

Scanner Support

While you can scan using cli commands with the HPLIP package, they do not supply a scanner app. Install xsane, an easy to use scanner utility.

sudo dnf install sane-backends sane-frontends xsane

Conclusion

After installing HPLIP and xsane you should now be able to print and scan on your all-in-one HP printer.
