Hello Dan!

As a follow-up: We have several HP printers here, so installing hplip
is the way to go. We have one old MFP among these that requires the
additional hplip binary plugin to allow scanning over network (which
is a very nice feature we rely on heavily). This plugin didn't
install properly, but that's probably more HP's fault (hp-setup needs
to install it). Actually, I have never been able to get it installed
without any manual interaction on any system I tried (be it FreeBSD,
Gentoo, Sabayon, MX or whatever). On the bright side, the "usual"
tricks worked here, too, so I could just use the commandline to get
everything going. Now I have both xsane and HP's simple scanner tool
using the MFP scanner over the network.


Regards,
Gerrit
