Actually... after trying the many things in that link,
some of which I repeated with sudo just to try
(some had slightly better results with sudo, but still no luck),
nothing worked, but much later, I rebooted the PC,
and it then worked.

So, some of the steps in that link worked,
although I don't know which,
and it/they need a restart (or re-login?) to work.

BTW, one thing that still doesn't work is the feeder,
although I haven't found any command/program
that is compatible with the feeder AND
documents its usage properly,
so it may be the fault of those commands, and not of hplip.

Thanks,

Alex
