HPLIP 1.7.3 - This release has the following changes.
1. Added the <nopjl /> tag to hpijs-generator.in. This will remove
the extra foomatic PJL options from most HP LaserJet PPD files. The
extra foomatic PJL options caused some HPIJS PCL data issues. This fixes
a "PCL XL error" on LJ1010/1012 that can occur on different PCs.
2. Fixed defect (An error occurs when send a fax coverpage with "&"
or "<" character in Regarding or Optional Message field.)
3. Removed banner pages from fax print settings
4. Altered hpfax: device discovery output to match hp: scheme (CUPS
1.2 only)
5. Removed the wait cursor during the password entry screen [reported
by Johannes]
6. Added error messages and suppressed content in toolbox when device
is not found or unsupported
7. A new configure option was added --enable-cups11-build, this
option controls the hp/hpfax device discovery message when no devices
are found. If needed, this option provides backward compatibility with
CUPS 1.1.x applications.
With --enable-cups11-build set the "no_device_found" message is
displayed during device discovery by the "hp" backend.
With --disable-cups11-build (default) set the backend prints a
scheme based on the following conditions.
Condition 1 - no daemons
output nothing stdout return exit 1
Condition 2 - daemons running, no HP devices, output scheme
direct hp "Unknown" "HP Printer (HPLIP)" return exit 0
Condition 3 - daemons running, HP printer found, output URI
direct hp:/... "hp model" "HP model HPLIP" "deviceid" return exit 0
9. Changed the way that hp-setup was being launched from the toolbox,
it was hanging on Edgy
10. Added Tools > Printer Information
11. Added a check for 'lpr' for Debian installation (to force install
of cupsys-bsd)
12. Moved the password prompt in the text/CLI installer past the
distro confirm/select prompts to handle a problem with Mepis
13. Made a change to determine if networking is working during
installation.
14. Added a private copy of sanei_init_debug to libsane-hpaio. This
will remove the libsane.so dependency which was a problem for WINE.
15. Fixed defect (PPD file "foomatic:HP-PSC_2400-hpijs.ppd" can not be
found when set up PSC 2400 in interactive mode.)
16. Fixed a page update defectin the toolbox (when switching devices,
update page correctly)
17. Re-wrote hpaioAdvanceDocument function in libsane-hpaio. This
change only effects SCL scanners with an ADF (ie: inkjet all-in-ones).
This fixes a double-feed ADF issue which occurred when scanning a single

calibration job in GUI mode on photosmart c7180.)
