hplip problem with FC6

[SternData]

I'm trying to use the hp printer utilities (part of the hplip package)
with a clean install of FC6.

When I start the hplip service, it appears that hpiod starts, but hpssd
 fails:

/var/log/messages:
Oct 31 22:22:08 sds-desk hpiod: 1.6.7 accepting connections at 2208...
Oct 31 22:22:08 sds-desk python: hpssd[5719] error: Server exited with
error: Unable to bind to socket

debug doesn't supply much more info:

 python /usr/share/hplip/hpssd.py -g
hpssd[5776]: debug: Exception: 95 (Unable to bind to socket)
error: Server exited with error: Unable to bind to socket

It looks like hpiod is listening on port 2208

# tail /var/run/hpiod.port
2208

I've modified /etc/init.d/hplip to reflect this port

daemon ./hpssd.py -p2208

but that doesn't work, nor does

/usr/share/hplip/hpssd.py -p2208


Does anyone have the hplip package working? If so, can you run hp-info?
