Can you run:

/etc/init.d/hplip restart
and
/etc/init.d/cupsys restart
and finally
hp-setup -g
and post the hp-setup -g log.

I could not get the installation to work (sh hplip-1.7.1.run), it just
hung forever or until I logged out whilst attempting the following:

'su -c "apt-get install --force-yes --yes libjpeg62-dev python-dev
libcupsys2-dev libusb-dev lsb libsnmp5-dev python-reportlab sane"'

Finally I used aptitude to install these dependencies myself and then ran:
sh hplip-1.7.1.run and get the following:

I feel like I am getting close but still no banana!
I have an excellent internet connection although I think aptitude is setup
to only use CD currently after my installation (not sure, just a guess.)
When it says 'Please restart CUPS and try again.' I will look on the
internet at how to restart CUPS but by start again does it mean go through
the whole 'sh hplip-1.7.1.run' process again?

thanks in advance.

p.s.
I was attempting to install on a Demudi system about 6 weeks ago and got
some help from Aaron at hplip but I gave up with Demudi as it seems to be
an unsupported distro now and has sooooo many dependency issues on so many
different areas.
