Dear, First of all let me commend HP for it support for Open Source Community. That is great! I have a question about using HPLIP under FreeBSD.
Namely, I have a pretty old but phenomenally good OfficeJet R60 all-in-one. Currently the printer is working flawlessly using CUPS and hpjis drivers. However, I did compile HPLIP and read carefully wonderful how to http://freebsd.kde.org/howtos/hplip.php as I would like to get another all-in-one HP product. The directions in that howto are USB specific while my R60 uses parallel port. It bothers me that I am not using R60 as a scanner. I know that it is very old device but I really wonder if the scanning is supported (according to documentation it is) and has anybody successfully done that on FreeBSD. My HP printer is detected as lp0 device and HPLIP manager doesn't see it (I did enable daemons and created hplip.conf file but I have generic kerenl since my printer has a parallel port) which didn't bother me since the only reason I would like to use HPLIP is to get scanner working. Xsane and uscanner drivers are not applicable for parallel port scanner.
