Great! Changing the model allowed me to change even the driver used, hplip
still not works, but I can print through gnome printers settings.
Thank you all guys so much.
Sorry for my misleading reply, I got the impression from here, which link I
should've included with my reply

(I though the blob was needed for any operation, not just scanning...)
Glad you got it sorted with the help
Will installing system-config-printer-gnome solve the problem you opened the
thread with?
