next trying install it. needs proprietary driver typing in "hp-plugin". kept dying on me, giving me "eval: 1: ./hplip-plugin-install: permission denied" reason had set /tmp ram drive (in /etc/fstab)
/tmp tmpfs defaults,nosuid,nodev,noexec 0 0
see these webpages.

1 other cool thing, cups installed somehow , can sorts of things browsing "http://localhost:631"
