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

It should give

direct hpfax:/usb/HP_LaserJet_3390?serial=00CNMJP81545 "HP Fax" "HP
LaserJet 3390 HP Fax" "MFG:HP;MDL:Fax;DES:HP Fax;"

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.
