I think I figured out the problem. The address mask needs to be applied to values returned by the Get*EP methods since the direction is also included in the high order bits. I've got an updated port skeleton http://am-productions.biz/docs/hplip-try2.tgz. The patches are in the files directory. This now works with my Officejet 5510v. I can get status information and initialize the fax machine. Scanning works after fixing a few symlinks.
Currently what still needs work: 1) Front panel display in hp-toolbox doesn't show the display information. 2) Run hpiod and hpssd as unprivileged users. 3) On the Officejet the "Make Copies" function is grayed out in hp-toolbox 4) I don't have a photo card slot on my Officejet, so I can't test that functionality. Feel free to send the applicable hardware. :) 5) Banish the Linuxisms in the Makefile that cause all sorts of trouble during the "make install" target. Also if you (HP) are serious about having FreeBSD support I'm available for contract/consulting work. I'll just wait for your I/O guy's opinion on the remaining non-functioning pieces. > > Ok, I've got another datapoint.

Any problems with this method? Thanks for supporting open source OSes :), -- Anish Mistry [EMAIL PROTECTED] AM Productions http://am-productions.biz/
