During the upgrade instructions were carefully followed however at the end the printer was not recognized. The upgrade was attempted again and it was then noted that it was required to turn off then on the printer for it be be recognized at the end of the install. Today, 26 June 2015 after a reboot caused by a video freeze the printer was not recognized (firmware was not downloaded during boot as usual) and running hp- setup shows printer not recognized even after turning the printer off then on several times and also unplugging and replugging it in to the usb port. I have not yet gone through these steps: => Run the command "hp-uninstall" to cleanly uninstall HPLIP. Remove plug-ins too when prompted. => Install the latest (or already downloaded 3.15.2 run file) => Remove all the existing queues by running the command "hp-setup -r" => Re-configure the queue by running the command "hp-setup". This step will also prompt for installing the plugin. Follow the prompts to install the plugins. => Try printing to the queue named HP_LaserJet_1020 After going through all the steps above the printer is again functional. Note: during the step to install the hp driver besides unplugging and replugging in the usb cable I have to additionally turn the printer off and on. Once this is done the driver installs correctly.
