Michael, The -gui package is really there for dependancy management. Users do install hplip on a headless print server and don't want the gui dependances pulled in -qt3.
If they want the full gui interface. The -gui package ensures the depends and menu entries are correct.

Reading through the package description, I had the impression that this package would contain the graphical admin tools.
