When installing HPLIP latest version it keeps writing this message, when trying to install manually the python "missing" packages it says they are already installed.

Tried so many solutions here - none worked :((

screen shows : 

Distro set to Ubuntu 16.04

Initializing. Please wait...

SECURITY PACKAGES

Would you like to have this installer install the hplip specific policy/profile (y=yes*, n=no, q=quit) ? y

Following dependencies are not installed. HPLIP will not work if all REQUIRED dependencies are not installed and some of the HPLIP features will not work if OPTIONAL dependencies are not installed.

Do you want to install these missing dependencies (y=yes*, n=no, q=quit) ? n
error: Installation can not continue because all REQUIRED dependencies are not installed.

  • @SachinYadav Can you please [edit] your post and elaborate how installing hplip would help. I tried the command you mentioned but it ain't installing some of the missing dependencies mentioned in the question. – Kulfy Oct 20 '19 at 11:15
