Hi Shivani,

I'm sorry I don't have such a list.

Did you have such a list when you removed the dependency on plugin for
other models in 3.20.6?

I base my request (revert all plugin dependency made in 3.20.6) upon the
following logic:

- when model support was added it was tested by HPLIP project owners
- when user had a plugin problem with a model (the model needed a plugin 
although models.dat says it doesn't), he reached HPLIP project owners with the 
issue and they updated models.dat

so based on the prerequisites it doesn't make sense to remove dependency
on plugin for models, unless you have a list of devices which you tested
and actually don't need a plugin but they are noted as they need a
plugin.

Wouldn't it make sense to revert the 'plugin state' to the state before
3.20.6, depending on the presumption 'the previous state was tested' is
true?
