I have installed two or three times, deleted /etc/cups and reinstalled
the printer. It showed up as an HPLIP device when installing, w/ CUPS
and/or the kde printer utility. NOtably the utility OR the
localhost:631 interface did not show any option for a USB printer.
The address that ended up being used was a usb:<printername>. When I
get gentoo booted up I'll look at it again. For now, I have to print,
so I've installed Ubuntu on another partition. Printing works fine
there, so that's a start.
Thank you,
Alan
