Nope; my notes say that I was installing HPLIP toolbox while using the
Add/Remove Applications service running in my original installed Trisquel. I
remember a different set of options presented during that original
installation than during the second installation. Actually, during that
second installation of Trisquel (necessitated by a blunder of mine involving
that request for root access by hplip) I _did not_ install HPLIP toolbox. I
found the network printer by a different method and used CUPS to configure it
successfully.
Daring folks should try installing HPLIP toolbox and see what happens ...
Maybe that will trigger the offending call to the HP website ... but the OS
might have had to have detected a network printer beforehand.
