While, 2.8.6 maybe running well, that isn't the issue with it. Henrique does have an important point. Upstream have asked that 2.8.6 not be redistributed. "HPLIP 2.8.6 prematurely released code that was not intended for release. Release 2.8.6b replaces 2.8.6 and removes that code. There is no change in intended functionality as described in the release notes. We do not recommend using release 2.8.6 and ask that release 2.8.6 not be redistributed. " http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=849275 IMHO, that makes 2.8.6 unsuitable for a Debian stable release.
