(SOLVED) HP 3520?

[Georgetoon]

Do the HP drivers in the repository support the HP 3520?

My brother is running PCLinuxOS on his notebook.  He hasn't updated it..it just runs nd runs and runs. But, he bought an HP 3520 and we can't gt any of the drivers to work.

doe the updated HP package support the 3520?

If the printer is the one listed at the above URL, then yes, it's supported.
Minimum hplip version = 3.12.6
hplip version in PCLOS repo = 3.12.9

Yes, it's the first one listed. Thanks!:)  Now, all I need do is reinstall his PCLinuxOS so he can get the latest packages, etc.  

Does the latest and greatest KDE version point to the current repos?  Or do I have to manually set the sources list?
EDIT - Downloading (via torent) the latest release pclinuxos-kde-2013.02.iso. I'm assuming that repos, etc are all set correctly and pointing to correct servers (as there was a move not so long ago.).

Yes, /etc/apt/sources.list contained in the current ISO (2013.02) is working just fine. Or at least it is for me

Thank you so much for confirming all this. My brother is stopping by tonight with his notebook computer and his new printer.  I'm going to do a reinstall of PCLinuxOS and then hook up his printer.  Should be easy to get his printer up and running now that I know hplip is the latest and greatest and supports the P3520.

The bump in the road was I didn't update is system since first installing.   He was always using it and getting work done.  I warned him that I'll probably need to do a complete reinstall down the road. No problem.  He LOVES running Linux and not having to deal with all the Windows problems.

I reinstalled PCLinuxOS to my brother's Lenovo notebook, installed the printer drivers and bingo!  Up and running!:)

Many thanks to all.
