HP Envy 5530 and Linux Ubunu 14.04

5,121

There is a whole collection of printer handling/configuration tools provided by HP, installed with apt-get install hplip-gui.

The command to directly open a dialog to add an USB printer is hp-setup. It can also be used in text mode with the -i option, if you like to use it over ssh or so.

Run hp-check and hp-doctor for automatic diagnostics.
You can access many of the other tools for hp-toolbox for others.
