im not a linux wiz. i looked in synaptic package manager searching for pyqt4 but not sure if what i need is there(lots of stuff turned up) so can anyone walk me thru installing these so i can re run hplip
thank you GW

Re: printer help please
Is there any reason you can't use the hplip 3.16.11 already in jessie-backports? (see backports.org)
I searched the Google and it says it needs at least 3.14.10, so Jessie's 3.14.6 is just a little too old, but 3.16.11 should be fine.
