Hi,

I have found a bg in the current HPLIP (1.7.1). I have run "lpinfo -v" 
and saw the "hp:/..." URI of my HP LaserJet 3390 (on USB) twice. I found 
that strange and tried starting the CUPS backends manually. There I 
found out that hpfax gives

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/ubuntu/foomatic-db$ /usr/lib/cups/backend/hpfax
direct hp:/usb/HP_LaserJet_3390?serial=00CNMJP81545 "HP Fax" 
"HP_LaserJet_3390 HP Fax" "MFG:HP;MDL:Fax;DES:HP Fax;"
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/ubuntu/foomatic-db$
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

It should give

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/ubuntu/foomatic-db$ /usr/lib/cups/backend/hpfax
direct hpfax:/usb/HP_LaserJet_3390?serial=00CNMJP81545 "HP Fax" "HP 
LaserJet 3390 HP Fax" "MFG:HP;MDL:Fax;DES:HP Fax;"
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/ubuntu/foomatic-db$
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Note the URI having to begin with "hpfax:/...". Another small thing 
which you could fix is removing the underscores from the 
"HP_LaserJet_3390 HP Fax" (4th field of the output), as this field is 
used for the human-readable listing in the web interface of CUPS.
