    Hello,

    In a terminal: 
     cd /path/where_the_file_is <Enter> chmod u+x file.run <Enter> sudo ./file.run  <Enter>

      You can also start the installation of the .run file from the command line:
      example:
      cd/Documents (navigate to the directory where the .run is located) e.g. file to install: hpplip.run
      then type:
      sh hpplip.run
      And follow the installation procedure, and there you go!
